R.I.P Esbjörn Svensson

Post by frahnque » Mon Jun 16, 2008 8:54 am

Yesterday the Swedish jazz pianist Esbjörn Svensson died in a diving accident.

I hope some of you heard his and his trios music, brilliant musicianship right from the start. A truly unique and genre-transcending sound. You will be missed Esbjörn!

Sadly enough it is. I just wish I had all my CD's with them here at work right now.
