Today we feature some rather delicious footage from a release concert at Orionteatern Stockholm from 2024, We share this today on the cold wet Monday because Space – the phenomenal trio of Lisa Ullén (piano), Elsa Bergman (double bass) and Anna Lund (drums) are playing London’s Cafe Oto this very evening. This very evening being Monday 26th of October. The link you just passed takes you to the Cafe Oto page and the concert details (and tonight has now been made a free to enter performance for Oto member so maybe quickly grab yourself some membership)

The album Space were releasing at the time the film was and indeed still is Embrace The Space (on relative pitch records), find it on their Bandcamp page –

“Space is the trio of Lisa Ullén, Elsa Bergman and Anna Lund based in Stockholm, Sweden.This is their second album. Their music is totally improvised and has a strong connection to the traditions of free jazz and European contemporary music” so say the label

The trio have just released a new album, here’s what Oto have to say about tonight and the new release –

Space combines raw power with exquisite attention to detail. The improvising piano trio from Stockholm channel the American free jazz tradition and contemporary classical music. Lisa Ullén, Elsa Bergman and Anna Lund make every moment sparkle with possibilities, where every movement matters.

On 26 October they return to Café Oto to celebrate the release of London Concert, the live record of their first London Café Oto appearance. Released on LP and digital, on Sweden’s Fönstret label 9 October”.

Here is that new album, do like the way they use space, do like their tension, their extention, do rather like everything about it… Find this one on Bandcamp as well…
