Opus 3 CD 19801 Reviewed by SG (hi-fi+)
This album is all about the evolution of interplay - from the Trio and its playing, to the recording itself. The music is smooth, free flowing, jazz played to the highest standards. An acoustic double bass, and sensitive drumming - similar to that of the great Jimmy Cobb - back Rundqvist's wonderful piano tones, but it is the interaction of the performers that impresses most. The rhythm and flow of the music seem to grow, as they entwine each element of the music, letting it breathe and then grow. While each instrument is coherently isolated as an individual source, they advance into a single entity, manifesting the ascendancy of each phrase. This is all made possible by Jan-Eric Persson's single point recording. With one microphone the musicians are able to, directly, connect with each other. The acoustics of the Nacka Hall are superb, and while larger than locations usually used for jazz, the recording sounds very natural. The instruments are well defined, with the size of the piano realistically portrayed. This is a very pleasant album that should appeal to all those who have heard and love the great jazz issued by the Mapleshade label. Highly recommended.

Gösta Rundqvist is really a master of romantic improvisation and yet at the same time he plays with a very modern and free style and with a total communication within the trio.
Gösta Rundqvist (piano), born in 1945, and Hans Anderson (double bass), born in 1963, are both experienced and well established musicians who played together with many Swedish and international artists such as:
Gösta: Bosse Broberg, Putte Wickman, Red Mitchell, Clarke Terry and Toots Thielmans.
Hans: Anders Bergcrantz, Jan Lundgren, Vincent Herring, Rich Perry and Mark Murphy
More recently they have met in varying musical configurations including Bosse Broberg's big band creation Nogenja and with Svante Thuresson. On tour with the latter was 28 year-old Fredrik Rundqvist (drums), well on the way to establishing a name in the jazz world, who became the natural choice for the trio from it's inception. In spite of long journeys, the trials of parenthood, age differences and different dialects, the trio still finds the place, time and urge to play together.
