█▓ ACT Music presents: ▓█
█▓ e.s.t. (Esbjorn Svensson Trio) - Viaticum (The ▓█
█▓ Radio-Edits) ▓█
█▓ ▓█
█▓ Important: ▓█
█▓ This Promotional CD only include special radio-edits. ▓█
█▓ The full album is expected to be out Jan. 24th 2005 ▓█
█▓ ▓█
█▓ Notes: ▓█
█▓ The Esbjorn Svensson Trio has now been in existence ▓█
█▓ for a good ten years and in the past three has been ▓█
█▓ at the centre of international attention. But even ▓█
█▓ so, the pianist canÆt quite absorb the level of ▓█
█▓ excitement about him and his trio. The talk is of ▓█
█▓ "wonderfully exciting sound masterpieces", of the ▓█
█▓ "art of effective simplicity", of "hypnotic hymns" ▓█
█▓ and of "jazz, which gives enough air to breathe, ▓█
█▓ while on the other hand taking oneÆs breath away." ▓█
█▓ Esbjorn Svensson is slightly amused whenever he reads ▓█
█▓ the adulatory critical praise after every new ▓█
█▓ release: "We have been making music together for such ▓█
█▓ a long time. And we are just playing what seems most ▓█
█▓ natural for us." ▓█
█▓ Now we are waiting to see if the euphoria about the ▓█
█▓ release of the new CD Viaticum will, despite the ▓█
█▓ eye-dropping modesty of its creators, will be of a ▓█
█▓ similar magnitude to that which accompanied the ▓█
█▓ release of predecessors Strange Place for Snow (2002) ▓█
█▓ and Seven Days of Falling (2003). These releases ▓█
█▓ seemed to win every prize going in the international ▓█
█▓ music world: two German Jazz Awards, the annual ▓█
█▓ German criticsÆ prize in 2002, BBC Jazz Award for ▓█
█▓ Best International Artist of 2003, the special prize ▓█
█▓ at MIDEM 2003 and the French Grammy "Victoire du Jazz ▓█
█▓ 2003". And those are only the most important. The ▓█
█▓ latest is the award of the "European Jazz Prize" to ▓█
█▓ e.s.t. in December 2004, which is given by the ▓█
█▓ Austrian Music Office (AMO) in conjunction with the ▓█
█▓ Austrian Ministry of Culture and the City of Vienna ▓█
█▓ cultural department. A jury from 23 European ▓█
█▓ countries choose the winner "who has attracted major ▓█
█▓ attention on a high artistic level in the ▓█
█▓ international jazz field". ▓█
█▓ ▓█
█▓ e.s.t. is almost permanently on the road. In the last ▓█
█▓ two years the band has performed hundreds of concerts ▓█
█▓ around the world and already it seems as if 2005 will ▓█
█▓ also be fully booked. But the enormous strain of ▓█
█▓ travel doesnÆt seem to bring the cool Swedes out of ▓█
█▓ their stride. In Summer 2004 the band took a month to ▓█
█▓ record their new album in the well-known surrounding ▓█
█▓ of the famous Atlantis Studios in Stockholm, and with ▓█
█▓ an old friend, engineer and studio boss Janne ▓█
█▓ Hansson. ▓█
█▓ ▓█
█▓ Svensson doesnÆt really like to describe the music on ▓█
█▓ his album, but he explains: "It is clear that the ▓█
█▓ proportion of the composed elements has grown, as we ▓█
█▓ donÆt jam as much as we used to." When the talk is ▓█
█▓ about the melodies and arrangements, Chopin has still ▓█
█▓ a very special influential role for Svensson, but ▓█
█▓ that of Johann Sebastian Bach should not be ▓█
█▓ underestimated. ▓█
█▓ ▓█
█▓ An almost telepathic understanding for one another ▓█
█▓ means that the trio is able to record an album in ▓█
█▓ which they know how to merge the intensity of their ▓█
█▓ almost legendary live shows with the technical ▓█
█▓ possibilities of the recording studio. ▓█
█▓ The trio places great weight on the titles of the ▓█
█▓ individual compositions. Their titles invite, in just ▓█
█▓ a few words, the opportunity to allow a deeper ▓█
█▓ understanding of the music: "Letter From The ▓█
█▓ Leviathan", "Twenty-Eight Days In My Veins", "In The ▓█
█▓ Tail Of Her Eye". DonÆt they sound like a sort of ▓█
█▓ poetry? Svensson replies: "ItÆs really important to ▓█
█▓ us to have titles that sound right. When the decision ▓█
█▓ for the specific tracks is made, itÆs usually left to ▓█
█▓ (drummer) Magnus ostrom. He takes the time to find ▓█
█▓ the most appropriate concept. The art of this however ▓█
█▓ lies in the fact that the imagination of the listener ▓█
█▓ shouldnÆt be distorted and each should be able to ▓█
█▓ create their own image in their head." ▓█
█▓ ▓█
█▓ If not before, the title track is likely to cause ▓█
█▓ your imagination to run riot- do the three Swedes ▓█
█▓ really mean "the Eucharist when administered to or ▓█
█▓ received by one who is dying or in danger of death" ▓█
█▓ as defined by the Oxford English Dictionary? Svensson ▓█
█▓ clarifies the situation: "If you want to think of it ▓█
█▓ in those terms, don't let me stop you! But the word ▓█
█▓ has another meaning. Just think of Viaticum as simply ▓█
█▓ the provisions which the band would like to give you ▓█
█▓ to take along on your journey." ▓█
█▓ ▓█
