Bobo Stenson Trio
Swedish jazz legend in poetic, deeply attuned trio setting.
Bobo Stenson stands as one of the great figures of Swedish jazz, with a career that spans over five decades. Together with Anders Jormin on bass and Jon Fält on drums, he forms a trio known for its rare sensitivity, musical weight, and deep understanding of space and silence.
Their latest album Sphere (ECM, 2023) offers a focused exploration of Nordic tonality and introspective expression. It blends original works with interpretations of Scandinavian composers such as Per Nørgård, Sven-Erik Bäck, and Jean Sibelius – always allowing room for stillness, resonance, and attentive listening.
As Jazzwise noted: “a powerful, introspective album that draws us into a world of intensely mutual focus, with many moments of startling lyrical beauty.” At Stockholm Jazz Festival, the trio performs in full autumn bloom – present, intuitive, and quietly radiant.
Lineup:
Bobo Stenson – piano
