Svend Asmussen - Still Fiddling

In a liner note to the Sonet album Toots & Svend, recorded 30 years ago, Leonard Feather described SVEND ASMUSSEN as one of the few violinists to attain international prominence. More recently, Jim Lowe, creator of the Asmussen web site,expressed the view that Svend may be the finest little-known jazz performer in the world. This is a new studio recording, with a group that has been his regular quartet since 1992, and that celebrates the jazz violin master's 86th birthday in fantastic style. With JACOB FISCHER (guitar), JESPER LUNDGAARD (bass), AAGE TANGGAARD (drums).
