Momentum is a studio album released by jazz pianist Dave Burrell.

It was recorded in November 2005 and released a year later on November 14, 2006, by the label High Two.

[1] The first three tracks on the album were originally composed by Burrell to accompany the restored French silent film Body and Soul (1925) directed by Oscar Micheaux.

[2] All About Jazz reviewer Troy Collins comments that "Burrell hones in on the jazz tradition with intensity and focus, delivering one of the finest statements of his career".

[2] AllMusic reviewer Stewart Mason describes the album as "spiky and challenging but only rarely moving into the rhythmic and tonal fearlessness of some of his more outside work".
