Svend Asmussen Quartet/Svend Asmussen – Embraceable [CD]

A previously unreleased album that world-famous Jazz violinist Svend Asmussen considers one of his best recordings ever, now available on the occasion of his 99th birthday! In a tiny club in Paris with 26 guests, he played a set with three musicians he had never played with before. Just as they were about to play, a man casually told them the concert would be broadcast live on French radio, and this performance turned into one of his favorites due to the atmosphere & spontaneity of the live recording!
