Swedish experimental musician/pianist Göran Agdur. Apparently, he's also well-known in his local community as a table ice hockey player (you can see his skills on YouTube). This piano solo work is one of several he's released as a musician since the late '70s. It contains 14 pieces, a variety of long and short pieces played with gentle and pale touch. Among them, the standouts are the approximately 10mins minimali piece “Jakobs Stege” with its ambience atmosphere that should appeal to fans of Dominique Lawalrée, and the nostalgic “Piano Piano”. What a great piece. The exquisite artwork is also wonderful.

スウェーデンの実験音楽家/ピアニストGöran Agdur。どうやら界隈ではテーブルアイスホッケーのプレイヤーとして非常に有名のようです(その腕前はYouTubeでも拝見できます。早技すぎてよくわかりません笑)。本作はミュージシャンとして70年後半からリリースしていた一つに数えられるピアノソロ作品。淡いタッチで弾かれる長短バラエティに富んだ全14の楽曲を収録。中でもDominique Lawalréeが好きな方にもアピールできそうなアンビエンスな空気感を持った約10分に渡るミニマル曲”Jakobs Stege”やノスタルジーに響く”Piano Piano”は特に秀逸。温もりを感じるような素敵な作品。アートワークも絶妙。
