Jacob Karlzon

“...in Stay, beauty and darkness are united in a way that seems to run like a thread through the entire album. Who We Are is a philosophical, honest and confident album that shows who Tolstoy and Karlzon really are.”

“A carefully balanced duo album in which Tolstoy and Karlzon embrace each other with quiet intensity — rich in interaction, lyrical reflection, and calm assurance. Two professionals - and two friends in dialogue. ”

“A mature, warm album, which is even more intimate than its’ predecessors. ”

“Two kindred spirits, fully aware of what they do and who they are.  ”

“Vocal jazz at its finest... Karlzon sets the scene for Tolstoy with his restrained playing, but he also has the freedom to demonstrate his artistry. With his incredible technique and improvisational skills, he has become one of Europe's outstanding jazz pianists.”

“What I then called a small masterpiece, I here call a musical work of art. I don't know how else to label the music that the duo creates and performs together. ... ‘It's simply wonderful.”

“On A Moment Of Now she creatively reinvents everything she touches... Karlzon's varicoloured backdrops couldn't be more apposite. ”
