Listeners familiar with Bobo Stenson's most popular work might count him out as a hopeless romantic, but the Swedish
pianist can have sharp edges at times, too. That's why this particular set bears so much interest: Stenson accents his
more mellow recordings with some powerful angular energy. For example: his 1993 trio rendition of Ellington's
"Reflections in D" bears only shadowy relations to the original, and the understated urgency here emits a sharp glow. And
of course, Ornette Coleman tunes are always a real tip-off; two are featured here. Stenson's 1971 recording of "Untitled"
with the very same trio is about as bright and edgy as one might imagine. Take that, you disbelievers!
Stenson's obviously been around for a while, and his talent has not waned. His overall sensibility lies between out jazz
and chamber music, usually on the dark side of neutral. Comfortable on open ground, he lays out sparse lines without
overstatement. When the small group convenes to talk, he's eager for conversation. In the much less frequent heat of
intensity he seems to find an explosive inner energy. What's remarkable is that Stenson has developed a unique voice
which distinguishes him from any other pianist since Bill Evans tradition. Nobody will be comparing Stenson to any other
modern jazz pianist without making some dramatic leaps, and that statement enough to convince listeners to tune in.
Bobo Stenson is a traditionalist in one sense, believing that improvisation should exist within structure. His playing
bears a certain contagious gentleness, which permeates recordings under his own name as well as with others. Yet at the
same time he seems to be always chomping at the bit, which makes his intermittent bursts of unpredictability and
crescendo all that much more dramatic. His partners seem to understand this quirk, and they know how to exploit it.
Overall: good tunes and a nice range of styles. A solid pick.
The luminaries: Jan Garbarek, Don Cherry, Charles Lloyd. The big surprises: percussionist Okay Temiz and drummer Anders
Kjellberg. On the closer, these two lay down a brilliant edgy funk.
