Recorded at Trading 8s Studio in New York on June 20-21, 2013. Danish native Jacob Fischer is a rising star and one of the most in-demand jazz guitarists in Europe. Born in 1967, the self-taught guitarist began working as a professional when he was 17 years old, and since then has participated in more than 200 recordings.
Fischer's fifth album as a leader, and his debut from the Japanese label Venus Records, is an ambitious project: A tribute to Bill Evans with a simple trio with Martin Wind on bass and Tim Horner on drums. Their efforts are a success on many levels. On some tracks, they succeed because they use completely different approaches from those used by Evans in his well-known recorded performances.
Examples of these include the unsentimental, hard-boiled approach of the opening track and the imaginative collective improvisations on "Nardis." On a few other tracks includign "My Foolish Heart," they succeed to recreate the mood and atmosphere of the legendary Bill Evans trio with Scott LaFaro and Paul Motian despite the difference in the leading instrument.
