So when you watch Esbjorn play, he gets his face inches from the keys and almost crawls into the piano and actually does reach in there to make different sounds and piano effects. The predominant synth sound you hear is the bass player. Dan has so many crazy sounds he can make with his upright bass.

This guy's music was my first introduction to European jazz. I've been more grateful for that than any other musical exposure I've ever had in my life. I own copies of nearly his entire discography as a result. The bassist Dan Berglund and the drummer Magnus Ostrom formed a new trio in recent years with Bugge Wesselthoft called Rymden. Well worth a listen; a spiritual successor to EST, you might say. Also, Magnus Ostrom has played with almost innumerable other worthwhile jazz musicians from primarily Scanadinavia.

Unfortunately Esbjorn Svensson the pianist/composer died 2 years after the release of this album in a scuba diving accident he was only 44 just imagine all the music that could have been but the albums we have will live forever. Pat Metheny played a song at a tribute event for him. They had played together before.🙏🏽✌🏽❤️

What he is dead? I missed that. He was together with the Swedish Jazz-singer Victoria Tolstoy (who is related to the author) and so called blooming stars on the Jazz-scene. Met him once at a Jazzclub in Visby,,, He was very friendly, and I was in a gang of young Studying music and was kinda there to study him... He was great and his Trio of course. Of course I met Victoria Tolstoy as well.

Thanks for your suggestion! It´s so sad, that he died so young. I discovered them one or two years before this accident and think they were one of the best jazz trios of the 2000´s. I wanted so much to see them live but there was no chance anymore. The live recordings with Pat Metheny in Salzau, Germany in 2003 were great! Watch out for "Dodge the Dodo".

It couldn't have been more than a week or two after I discovered this band that he died. What a bummer.

Absolutely brilliant! EST revitalized the jazz piano trio in the 21st century. Outstanding musicianship that evolved from jazz tradition into a new and very contemporary take on live improvised jazz and attracted an audience much broader than normal. I saw them live five times and every time was different and totally exhilarating. The untimely death of Esbjorn is one of the greatest tragedies of all time.

They were on the cover of Downbeat, had just started to be recognized all over the world, after so many years of struggling and working. And then the tragic diving-accident, that put an end to it. Esjbjorn loved to bathe and swim. One magic and totally unic trio during my lifetime.

You could compare with another earlier Swedish jazz pianist (and who also died suddenly in an accident) Jan Johansson (1931-1968). Try "Emigrantvisa" or "Visa fran Utanmyra" both based on old folk music.

Esbjörn Svensson, one of the greatest Swedish Jazz pianists of his time...incredible dexterity on the keyboard and sadly taken from us too young. His contemporary from Finland, Iiro Rantala, created this beautiful piece, 'Tears for Esbjörn' kzread.info/dash/bejne/dGiEypadfLStgbQ.html, in memory of him. Glad you are exploring some other jazz greats.

e.s.t. was extremely influential. In the late 90's they invented a completely new style of jazz piano trio music, which almost every new trio copied in the following 15 years. :-)

Awesome group!!

Nice piano work and - dare I say it? - groove going on here.

Excellent

Really cool that you guys are exploring E.S.T. Definitely pioneers of modern jazz. Some of my favorites from them are Eighty Eight days in my Veins, The Wraith, Seven Days of Falling, Elevation of Love, Eight Hundred Streets by Feet, Beyond the Yasmak (he has a live performance with Pat Methany on youtube of this). For some other great modern jazz groups, check out Gogo penguin, Mammal Hands, Hiromi Uehara, Bad Plus, Neil Cowley trio, Kneebody, Avishai Cohen trio, Tigran Hamasyan, Phronesis, Brad Mehldau, Alfa Mist, Portico Quartet.

This is a first for me! But i completely fell in love with the flow and vibe of this one! It was fun one to watch! Thanks so much for the request! And thanks for this video! Much love ! Cant wait for the next one!

No synth in there. The odd sound is the upright bass running through amp and stomp boxes. In other songs it sound like the odd e guitar. Thanks for reacting on this and cudos for your braveness to introduce yourself to kind of "odd" music

Lots of really good live E.S.T. videos available on KZread. Even one with your new favorite - Pat Metheny! Esbjorn was a genius. Just watching him play is so entertaining.

I got pleasure from seeing this group in Montreal, it was amazing. this trio has influenced a lot of jazz trio with this genre. the pianist uses a lousy pedal on the piano and the bassist of the distortion and wawa. unfortunately a tragic accident of the pianist. Pat Metheny is a guest on a live play found on KZread.

Nick and Lex in the E.S.T. zone starting at 3:14

"Come Dancing" with me. Shuffle to the funky beat with Jeff Beck and I. Or, try "The Barbarian" and pound to ELP.

Behind the Jashmak live. Any version will do. 😉

It's not a keyboard, it's the double-bass (with an arc)

I had read about EST in the "jazz corner" of my eclipsed magazine, never heard before, but I like it ... will have to check out more. Esbjörn Svensson was twice elected Swedish Jazz musician of the year. Other than that, it's been a great weekend for new releases: Neal Morse Band released Innocence and danger, album with great variety and the next Neal Morse Prog-Epos, of the prog bands I know, Neal Morse is the man with most epics longer than 20 minutes, I'm counting 9 by now with Transatlantic and Neal Morse Band, not counted the ones, he realeased with Spocks Beard. Jinjer - Wallflowers, not everybody's taste, but if you like modern metal with a fantastic female singer, you should listen to the titletrack and Vortex. Ad Infinitum - a Swiss Symphonic Metal Band with another good female singer So Jazz fans with a wide range of music taste - go for it :-)

1st min in. Love the piano for sure. Check out George Winston in your down time. I'm not on patron. I never heard of this group either. Loving it. Very upbeat. And did I say I LOVE PIANO ANYTHING!

EST is way better live than the studio recordings. Big difference!

Brad Mehldau

Muy bueno...no los conocia a estos muchachos, buscare mas musica de ellos, aca en Argentina hay unos pibes que son un trio llamado Sur Oculto les recomiendo EL ETERNO REGRESO AL CAOS, son mas del undergound y son algo similares a la banda que acaban de reaccionar en cuanto a la instrumentacion (teclado,bajo, bateria) SUR OCULTO son de una provincia de aca que se llama Cordoba, y otro trio que les recomiendo con formacion trio(guitarra criolla y voz, teclado y bateria) son ACA SECA trio su tema HUAYNO DEL DIABLO es muy lindo y tiene que ver con nuestra musica folkorica.ellos tocaron en festivales de jazzhead creo que es de Alemania, en su ultimo tema se vajaron del escenario y llevaron solo un microfono y un bombo y tocaron lo aca se llama CANTO CON CAJA a tres voces los temas Pobre mi negra y Domingo e chaya..son canciones muy tradicionales de nuestro folklore mas antiguo, y la audiencia sorprendida aplaudio..porque asi se cantaba antes aca nuestros originarios..solo voz y percusion...saludos y exitos.

Can you review Metal Church Gods Of Wrath it’s early metal and I’m not even a big metal fan and I like it I want to see if you have heard it

Y'all check out Ozric Tentacles- " Pungent Efullgent " ! You'll relaly like this band !

Check out "a plague of lighthouse keepers" by van der graaf generator, a hidden gem of prog, it's a long track but definitely worth your attention

No se pierdan la oportunidad de escuchar attaque 77 sobretodo el tema western una de las mejores letras de argentina y si aprecian el vídeo mucho mejor comprenderán lo fuerte de la canción y su historia...otras grandes canciones de attaque pueden ser el cielo puede esperar o no me arrepiento de este amor pero igualmente tiene muchos es una banda de 35 años de trayectoria incluso hasta la actualidad

Please react to Eternal Rains WIll Come by Opeth as well. It would really mean the world to me!
