PGM 822 : "RESTRAINT"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : subtle, lyrical Nordic spacejazz

INTRO: If there's one quality that applies to every variety
of jazz, it's great musicianship. These cats can
*really* play,
and sometimes they get so into it that virtuosity becomes
the subject of the music.

But there's another tradition in jazz, famously exemplified
by MILES DAVIS' classic KIND OF BLUE. Lyrical. Quiet.
Subtle. Spacious. It's not about how many notes you play:
it's about how beautifully you play them. As one musician
says, it's about "loving every note."

On this transmission of HEARTS of SPACE, we explore a
quietly intense world of melody, space and feeling, on a
Nordic spacejazz journey called RESTRAINT.
