Untraditional variations of ragtime, beautiful impressionistic
landscapes and a wild energy heard seldom in a Danish jazz trio,
makes the S°ren Kjµrgaard Trio a very interesting rising on the
scene, and the double release ôAmfebiaö and ôAkustikaö resembles a
new sound of the classic piano trio setting.
"Amfebia" is as the title points out, an amphebic experience. The
trio conjures powerful atmospheres in a telepathic interplay, and the
original compositions takes the listener on a journey, weather itÆs
riding the wave in full swing or meditating below surface in full
boyancy. The trio openly links to both old and new sounds which
brings it a timeless quality.
The music is composed mainly by S°ren Kjµrgaard, and the tunes vary
from being in one groove, one vibe, to suite like compositions. The
pianistic expression is reminiscent of both Duke Ellington, Debussy
and Kieth Jarret, and this new shooting star on the scene demands his
attention. Since S°ren Kjµrgaard won the acclaimed Nordic Young Jazz
competition in 2000, he has been busy on the scene among some of the
most talented Danish jazz artists, and performing internationally
with a.o. Michael Blake, Tim Berne, Herb Robertson, Jim Black and
Stephen Bernstein. His approach to the piano is both classic and
unorthodox. Virtuosic sheets of sound goes hand in hand with prepared
sounds and edgy frasing. A tone which reveals studies in the colorful
history of the piano litterature. for more, www.sorenkjaergaard.com
