Info for ...and the Sun

Danish pianist and composer Frede Holger Thorsen returns with a new chapter for Kosmos Trio on …and the Sun, an album shaped by patience, presence, and a deep belief in the power of live musical interaction. Recorded entirely in a single room with bassist Martin Brunbjerg and drummer Jesper Lørup, the album captures a piano-led trio sound rooted in Nordic jazz, balancing spacious melodies, rich harmony, delicate grooves, and an ever-present interplay between tension and comfort.

"There’s clearly much to be had from repeated listens with even the smallest of deviations from the trio serving as compelling narrative points across the album as a whole. Kosmos Trio deliver an incredibly fascinating entry into their burgeoning legacy with a second chapter as engaging as their first." (Imran Mirza, ukvibe.org)

"Ultimately, …and the Sun is an album rooted in light, love, and appreciation for life. Its darker, contemplative moments are balanced by warmth and optimism, creating music that feels both intimate and expansive. Bringing together compositions written over many years, a newly formed trio, and a recording process built on trust and immediacy, it captures a group fully present in the moment and committed to creating something honest together."
