Review by Anders Svan

Triptyk, the latest album by Ola Bäckström, Johan Hedin, and Jonas Knutsson, is a stunning collection of traditional Swedish folk tunes that have been given a contemporary twist. The trio's seamless interplay and virtuosic musicianship are on full display throughout the album, which features a mix of original compositions and traditional tunes.

From the opening track, "Bergslagsjazz," which combines elements of jazz and folk music, to the hauntingly beautiful "Halling från Orsa," which showcases Hedin's masterful use of the nyckelharpa, Triptyk is a tour de force of musical creativity and skill. The trio's ability to seamlessly blend different genres and styles is particularly evident on tracks like "Trolldans," which features a driving rhythm section and Knutsson's soaring saxophone solos.

What is most impressive about Triptyk, however, is the trio's ability to breathe new life into traditional Swedish folk music. The album's arrangements are both inventive and respectful of the source material, and the trio's performances are imbued with a deep sense of reverence for the rich musical heritage of their country.
