Olga Konkova & Frederik Villmow - The Pianist's Garden (2024)

Exquisite production inspired by early Lutheran chorale music and other composed music, infused with spontaneous improvisations. As Olga Konkova says: "This is not a traditional piano trio, but a beautiful experiment where both woodwinds and drums provide the accompaniment to my piano.

Olga Konkova is a Norwegian/Russian Jazz pianist married to the bassist Per\u2005Mathisen, and known from several recordings and collaboration with international Jazz musicians like Adam Nussbaum, Gary Husband and Karin Krog. The Pianist's Garden is Olga's fourth album for Losen Records.
