Christian's trio takes up the traditional organ trio in its best
bop manner. What differs this group from so many others, is its
ability for a deep impression, a certain tenderness in its play,
combined with swing and groove. This is a rare combination.
All the three of this trio correspond to this impression: the
guitar with wonderful runs, sounding light weighted like a feather
rocking gently in the wind; the organ not powerful, but clear
with fine soloes; the drums supporting the swing without being
insistent.
This CD with standards as well as compositions of Christian is
really worth listened to.
