Lars Jansson/Bohusl: Temenos

Read "Temenos" reviewed by Jack Bowers


Lars Jansson is what one would call the complete package: a marvelous composer, resourceful arranger and masterful pianist, comfortable in any framework from trio to large ensemble, as he is on this scintillating new release by Sweden's world-class Bohuslän Big Band. This is Jansson's third recording with the triple-B, and as on the others ( The ...
