Home.S. Home.S.

Product Description

The recordings for HOME.S. were made only a few weeks before Esbjörn Svensson’s sudden death 2008. Svensson recorded the music in his Swedish home. For almost ten years afterwards, the album rested untouched in his wife Eva’s personal archive. These new recordings are the only ones that show Svensson in a setting other than that of the trio: Intimate, concentrated and completely one with himself.
