Norway's leading Lady Karin Krogh in collaboration with the great Steve Kuhn. After guesting in Steve's Trio they concluded their work with this stunning duo recording. Krog's many collaborations over the years have featured some of the jazz world's most prominent musicians - Dexter Gordon, Archie Shepp, Warne Marsh, Toots Thielemans, Bengt Hallberg, Red Mitchell, Kenny Drew, Nils Lindberg and John Surman—and several of these collaborations continue to this day. Among them is Krog's ongoing work with Steve Kuhn, whom she first met in the '70s. "He's my favorite pianist, she reports. In recent years they have released two CDs - Where You At? in 2003 and Together Again in 2006 - and last year they toured Japan, where both enjoy wide recognition.

"I love Karin dearly. When I see her I feel like I'm home, says Kuhn. "She is extremely talented and she's slowly getting the recognition she should. Indeed, while Krog is no stranger to awards, just this year she marked her place in Norwegian cultural history, receiving the Anders Jahre Culture Prize, one of Norway's most prestigious awards.

Karin Krogh - Vocal; Steve Kuhn - Piano.

  1. Reminds me of the album Stan Kenton made with June Christy - Duets. Just voice and piano. Gotta hear this; both top class performers.

    Thank you, mat.
