Tingvall Trio : Skagerrak |
 |
| |
Fitted out with a wonderful warm sound captured by Iceland's genius at the board Hrolfur Vagnsson, the debut CD "Skagerrak" is a marvelous cross-section of finely spun jazz compositions such as "Medvind", Latino tracks like "Mustasch", rhythmically no-hold-barred ass-kickers like "Norrland Guld" and pensive fantasies like "God natt". "Movie" instantly generates frame sequences in the mind, while with "Nimis" it's easy to imagine Will Downing constructing a relaxed pop number out of it. An outstanding jazz - piano . trio !
Press Quotes:
NDR 5'06:
"Impressive and capital evidence of fresh, unspoilt musicality."
Jazz Podium 6'06:
"Tingvall's songs are intensely melodic, yet little hooks and refined turnabouts pop up in the melodies time and again."
Audio 7'06:
"Everything flows while each bar conceals a mini-surprise. The Tingvall Trio grooves with reminiscences of Drums 'n Bass, Funk and Rock - A retort to the Esbjörn Svensson Trio."
Stereoplay 7'06:
"Sound Tip of the Month"
Stereo 07'06:
"TT sets its own accents in the ranks of young keyboard trios bringing forth Jazz which is both catchy and accessible at the same time."
Rondo 7'06:
"Again and again, this magnificently floating Trio Jazz transports listeners anew to a world full of fantasy and tenderness, even after hearing it several times."
Brigitte 21.6.06:
"Their northern Jazz is fresh and played with virtuosity, It has elements that rock and elegiac passages in which pianist and listener blend as one."
Rolling Stone 7'06:
"Self-written compositions between Folk Jazz, McCoy Tyner and Pop affiliates. Delectable!"
Music Manual Winter '06:
"Like a horn, the songs by Martin Tingvall bend themselves around strikingly impressionist Jazz motifs to mouth into brilliant trio improvisations. Appealing melodics remain the basis of a tantalizing fantasy."
