from Oannes *

Το project, βασισμένο σε γνωστές συνθέσεις των E.S.T. είναι ένα είδος κονσέρτου για jazz ensemble. Ενορχηστρωτής και διευθυντής της Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra είναι ο Hans Ek. Tο “παρών” των εναπομεινάντων μετά τον θάνατο του Esbjorn Svensson μελών του θρυλικού τρίο, Danny Berglund (μπάσο), Magnus Olstrom (drums) είναι δεδομένο, ενώ το ενδιαφέρον αυξάνει η παρουσία κορυφαίων της ευρωπαϊκής σκηνής της jazz : Iiro Rantala – πιάνο, Marius Nesset – σαξόφωνο, Verneri Pojola – τρομπέτα, Joahan Lindstrom – pedal & steel κιθάρα.

✻

The project, based on well-known E.S.T. compositions, is a kind of a concert for jazz ensemble. Hans Ek is the orchestrator and conductor of Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra.
The remaining members of the legendary trio after the death of Esbjorn Svensson, Danny Berglund – bass, Magnus Olstrom – drums are of course here, along with top soloists of the European jazz scene : Iiro Rantala – piano, Marius Nesset – saxophone, Verneri Pojola – trumpet, Joahan Lindstrom – pedal & steel guitar.
