Knud Jörgensen Jazz Trio - Teach Me Tonight / Opus 3 Records

Pianist Knud Jörgensen, who died in 1992 at the age of only 64, produced a genuine Opus 3 bestseller with his album recorded in 1984. Jörgensen was considered one of Sweden's best all-round pianists.

With a penchant for Oscar Peterson, he offers his own highly individual and dynamic interpretations of numerous swing classics together with Sture Akerberg (bass) and Johann Dielemans (drums). Jörgensen's

playing is incredibly varied and diverse. Elegant, light melodies merge with raw harmonies to create crackling tension. Jörgensen rose to fame during his career thanks to his exquisite reputation as a super sideman

on tours and recordings with many international jazz greats.

The LP (180-gram vinyl, 33 RPM), which boasts outstanding sound quality, was pressed by Optimal Media. Andreas “Lupo” Lubich (Calyx Mastering, Berlin) is responsible for the lacquer disc cutting.

Opus 3 is an independent Swedish music label dedicated to recording timeless acoustic music such as jazz, blues, folk and classical. Founded in late 1976 by sound engineer Jan-Eric Persson, the label has made it its

mission to reproduce voices and instruments as naturally as possible. To achieve this, Opus 3 selects recording environments with good natural. The label's recording techniques were developed specifically for acoustic

music and were originally based on the use of tube gear and “Blumlein” miking. In 2001, Opus 3 switched to digital eight-track technology and later to 16 channels – in the brand-new mixing and mastering studio designed

and set up by Sweden's leading acoustic engineer Lennart Nilsson to mark the label's 30th anniversary. Apart from a few digital intermediate steps all processing is still done exclusively analog.

We recommend the use of "L'Art du Son" LP cleaner to wet wash your vinyl. Even new records of high quality production will benefit from this.
