Christian Jormin Trio - See The Unseen - Jazz - CD

This record consists of my own compositions, most of them newly written specifically for the trio. The music was recorded during two days at the inspirational venue of Concert Hall Sjöströmsalen at Artisten in Gothenburg, Sweden. After playing together for many years in various constellations with bass player Magnus Bergström, we met drummer Adam Ross and the trio was formed. We collectively felt a special musical chemistry eventually leading to a strong urge of recording an album. This particular recording session was made in the middle of the pandemic lockdown, during a period where tinged by isolation, "hold your distance" was the prevailing mantra. However - seen from a musical point of view, a distance that needed to be bridged. In musical nearness, with the ears open at wide end, aiming for complete presence of perception, reacting to each others ideas whether they be of rhythmic or melodic kind. Through spontaneous interaction, approaching the music with playful minds in a humble form of communication, free from fear. Dependent on the character of a composition, sometimes navigating through neat passages, at other times creating more freely, by intuition. Thus creating music in the moment by opening up instead of closing down. The album is named after one of the tunes "See the Unseen" and points to the ability of understanding things which are outside of normal human perception, symbolizing the possibilities of inner growth and expansion of mankind. I hope you enjoy the music. Christian Jormin, May 2021
