Bobo Stenson Trio Bobo Stenson/Sweden 2024

Now that the Keith Jarrett Trio has disappeared, the last piano trio is Bobo Stenson, a Nordic master who is the best of the modern era in exploring new possibilities for piano trios since the Bill Evans Trio and advancing music, with Anders Jormin on bass and Jon Felt on drums. A beautiful latest live performance that follows the royal road of ECM is here to celebrate the 16th anniversary of the formation of the Stenson/Jormin/Felt Trio, which is still active today! The supreme live performance at Umeå Jazz Studio in Sweden on October 3, 2024, which marks the 16th anniversary of the formation of the Stenson/Jormin/Felt Trio, which is still active today, was recorded on the label's own carefully mastered, super high-quality stereo sound board that makes it feel like you're listening to it right in front of you. This is a must-listen album for ECM/piano trio fans! This trio's repertoire ranges from standards to contemporary music and folk music, and for this performance they have incorporated a wide variety of songs, boasting a wide range of musicality, as well as originals by the members. The crystallization of unparalleled beauty, ripened through the outstanding performances of each member, touches the heart. This is the finest piano trio since the death of the Keith Jarrett Trio! You will be drawn in by the creative playing without even realizing it... Stenson's persuasive piano, reminiscent of Keith in his prime, Yormin's overwhelming technique and presence comparable to Scott LaFaro and Eddie Gomez of the legendary Bill Evans Trio, and Feldt, who is no exaggeration to say is the successor to Christensen, develop excellent improvisations full of tension that do not include bop or 4 beats, and sometimes beautiful melodies that will take your breath away. The album is a well-balanced mix of quiet aesthetic scenes that are prominent in studio works and dynamic numbers that cannot be experienced in studio works, and delivers a superb performance that you will not get bored of until the very end! If you are a piano trio fan, you cannot miss the superb performance of the Stenson Trio, which is currently the most representative piano trio of ECM and the best piano trio in Europe in recent years...
