Jean-Simon Maurin Trio and Elin Wrede: Djupa Andetag

Read "Djupa Andetag" reviewed by Chris Mosey


Djupa Andetag means “deep breaths" in Swedish. They're something that can be easily taken in the unpolluted atmosphere of Scandinavia. And at its best, Jean-Simon Maurin's music--light and lyrical, greatly influenced by pianist Bill Evans--is as fresh as a Baltic summer breeze. There's introspection but--perhaps because of his French ancestry--none of the brooding melancholy that is ...

Jan Lundgren Trio: European Standards

Read "European Standards" reviewed by John Kelman

Jan Lundgren: Magnum Mysterium

Read "Magnum Mysterium" reviewed by John Kelman


A diverse artist who has demonstrated equal aplomb covering the Great American Songbook and traditional Swedish folk songs, Jan Lundgren's musical interests seem limitless in scope. Magnum Mysterium is the Swedish pianist's most ambitious record to date, where he tackles European renaissance sacred music in collaboration with the Gustaf Sjökvist Chamber Choir and bassist/cellist Lars Danielsson. ...

The Jan Lundgren Trio: Plays the Music of Jule Styne

Read "Plays the Music of Jule Styne" reviewed by Jack Bowers


In reviewing an earlier album by Swedish pianist Jan Lundgren ( Bird of Passage, Four Leaf Clover), I wrote that “he has, among other things, exquisite taste, marvelous touch, flawless technique, an attentive ear, power to spare... and a bounteous wellspring of creative ideas."
