The Swedish jazz pianist Esbjörn Svensson was a stylistic pioneer and created a very special sound with his trio. At the highest level of interaction, jazz, pop, rock, classical music and Swedish folk music tradition merged into a sound world of their own. The trio was an outstanding musical phenomenon whose reputation and impact with the public and other musicians grew over the years. 2018 marks the 10th anniversary of the death of this exceptional artist - and to this day, the influence and inspiration of Esbjörn Svensson can be heard in many young jazz musicians. With its selection of titles, the Songbook Volume 2 follows on from its predecessor and contains 21 of the best songs by the extraordinary trio as well as many photos of the musicians. All titles are notated for piano with chord notation and bass (optional).

Esbjörn Svensson Trio e.s.t.

Founded by the three Swedes Esbjörn Svensson (piano), Dan Berglund (bass) and Magnus Öström (drums), the Esbjörn Svensson Trio (e.s.t.) is considered one of the most influential jazz bands of its time. The trio became internationally recognised for their fusion of jazz with rock, electronic and classical music, which broke down traditional genre boundaries. Their energetic live performances and creative dynamics set new standards for jazz trios. After Esbjörn Svensson's tragic death in 2008, e.s.t. will be remembered as one of the most important and influential jazz formations in modern music history.
