Bobo Stenson Trio: Cantando

Read "Cantando" reviewed by Budd Kopman


The ECM label has championed the jazz aesthetic, quite audibly European rather than American, in differing proportions from release to release. Indeed, although ECM's New Series is ostensibly dedicated to new classical music, its edges leak over into jazz.

Bobo Stenson/Anders Jormin/Paul Motian: Goodbye

Read "Goodbye" reviewed by Terrell Kent Holmes


The title of this release has a type of finality to it, especially considering the somberness of the tunes therein. This is meticulously crafted jazz, atmospheric and full of spare landscapes. Pianist Bobo Stenson, bassist Anders Jormin and the wonderfully restless drummer Paul Motian play with imagination and economy, Stenson with a facility and tenderness that ...

Bobo Stenson

Read "Bobo Stenson" reviewed by Andrey Henkin

Bobo Stenson: Faithful Yet Irreverent

Read "Bobo Stenson: Faithful Yet Irreverent" reviewed by John Kelman


While the European jazz scene has been vibrant and forward-looking for decades, it's only been in recent years that some of its brightest stars have received the kind of exposure in North America that they've both deserved and enjoyed elsewhere.
