With this album he pay tribute to the amazing trumpeter Kenny Wheeler. <br>Kenny&nbsp;\u0301s&nbsp;fine compositions on this album are songs that Ewan has played with him on various occasions. The other songs are originals tunes by Ewan, some of which are inspired by Kenny&nbsp;\u0301s music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ewan Svensson, Yasuhito Mori and Magnus Gran have&nbsp;previously&nbsp;released 8 CDs as a trio and sometimes with various guest artists. On this 9th album the trio is expanded with the fantastic pianist Simon Westman and forms a new edition of Ewan Svensson Quartet .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201dAcclaimed Swedish guitarist Ewan Svensson\u2019s&nbsp;<em>The Forks<\/em>, a finely sprung and melodically attractive quartet tribute to the late brass master Kenny Wheeler, is both surpassingly beautiful and most thoughtful: an unclich\u00e9d choice of Wheeler material is complemented, in flowing and organic manner, by a sumptuous range of original Svensson material dedicated to the great man and interpreted by musicians of world-class quality.
