The six compositions Stumps by Sven-Ake Johansson are based on a variation potential of falling and rising short signals (notes) as a theme. A fourfold repetition of the theme at the beginning establishes the piece and provides a fixed starting material for the following improvisations. The simple repetition of the theme at the end concludes the composition as a kind of return. The basic tempi of the themes are calm; there is no fixed tempo, more a free placement. The rhythm section works in the improvisations according to the principle of free tempo/ dynamic vibration, the result is momentum (swing). Recorded at Haus der Berliner Festspiele, 6th of November 2022. Mastered by Werner Dafeldecker/Martin Siewert. Featuring Pierre Borel (Alto Saxophone), Axel Dörner (Trumpet), Simon Sieger (Piano), Joel Grip (Double Bass), and Sven-Ake Johansson (Drums).
