John Lewis & Svend Asmussen • European Encounter



Review by Scott Yanow
Violinist Svend Asmussen (who has had too few of his albums through the decades available in the U.S.) teams up with pianist John Lewis, bassist Jimmy Woode and drummer Sture Kalin on this 1962 session from Stockholm, Sweden. Most notable is the repertoire: six Lewis originals (including "Django") and Ornette Coleman's "Lonely Woman." Asmussen fits in well with Lewis and brings a solid sense of swing to the somewhat complex music. This date was reissued in 1986 as part of Atlantic's Jazzlore series.

Reseña de Scott Yanow
El violinista Svend Asmussen (que ha tenido muy pocos discos suyos a lo largo de las décadas disponibles en los Estados Unidos) se une al pianista John Lewis, al bajista Jimmy Woode y al baterista Sture Kalin en esta sesión de 1962 de Estocolmo, Suecia. Lo más notable es el repertorio: seis originales de Lewis (incluyendo "Django") y "Lonely Woman" de Ornette Coleman. Asmussen encaja bien con Lewis y aporta un sólido sentido del swing a una música algo compleja. Esta fecha se reeditó en 1986 como parte de la serie Jazzlore de Atlantic.
