Album Notes & Community Reviews

Recorded in Oslo, this magnificent session marks the legendary pianist's first completely unaccompanied solo studio album for Manfred Eicher's burgeoning ECM label. While the tracks exhibit a structured compositional framework, they possess the fluid, spontaneous energy that would define his later, entirely improvised concert recordings. The crystal-clear production highlights his astonishing technical proficiency and deeply emotive touch.
