    Aaltonen  signals his  interpretative approach  by  naming  his newest
    album Illusions Of A Ballad.  By stretching the rhythms and  harmonies
    of  well-loved  tunes  by Ellington,  Gershwin  and  Ornette, Aaltonen
    cagily moves this trio session  with bassist Ulf Krokfors and  drummer
    Tom Nekljudow beyond the usual parameters of a ôballads album.ö ItÆs a
    simple tactic:  At crucial  points in  the tune,  the trio  muses on a
    phrase or  a chord  change, throwing  the meter  and bar structure off
    enough to thrust the trio outside the tune. The beautiful irony of the
    approach is that, in  doing so, they get  much closer to the  heart of
    the  tune  than most  players  achieve by  playing  it straight.  This
    setting also highlights  AaltonenÆs nuance-filled tone,  smart, supple
    phrasing,  and understated  brawn. Krokors  and  Nekljudow  pick their
    openings judiciously,  offering Aaltonen  pointed feedback  instead of
    yeomenÆs support.
