ANDERSSON, Ellen: Impressions of Evans

60 years have passed since the release of a recording that would change Swedish jazz forever. Bill Evans, with his incredible touch and mastery of harmony has made an undeniable imprint on jazz musicians all over the world – and through his collaboration with Monica Zetterlund on Waltz for Debby in 1964, a new era for Scandinavian music was born.

Impressions of Evans is an effort to pay tribute to this – a gesture of gratitude for making pine trees and 5th Avenue come together in a remarkably seamless, beautiful way and for being the perfect example of how one plus one sometimes equals three.
