publication date: 30 Jul 2021
"And another new piano album" reads Martin Tingvall's website. The Swedish jazz pianist and songwriter presents his fourth album on his own in 2021: "When Light Returns". Most recently, the album "The Rocket" was released in 2019, which reached number one in the German jazz charts, and the longplayer "Dance" together with his trio in 2020.
in 2021, Tingvall is back on the road on solo paths. Like many of his colleagues, he composed his new record during the Covid 19 pandemic. Clearly, this experience had an impact on his songwriting.
About the creation process, he explains, "A year ago, the world suddenly seemed to stand still. As if humanity was holding its breath over the initial shock of the pandemic. At the same time, this spring was unusually beautiful in northern Europe. For weeks the sun shone from the sky, the buds of the plants and the insects came earlier than usual after the long Scandinavian winter."
