“I have been listening to jazz concerts for more than 50 years, and I consider myself lucky to have witnessed almost all the great piano legends: Count Basie, Dave Brubeck, Duke Ellington, Bill Evans, Erroll Garner, Earl Hines, John Lewis, Thelonious Monk, Oscar Peterson, Bud Powell, George Shearing and Horace Silver. Sadly, I have missed Art Tatum and Fats Waller, but have made up for it by listening to all the contemporary greats like Joe Zawinul, Herbie Hancock, Keith Jarrett and Brad Mehldau. Yet the single pianist I have heard live most often is Esbjörn Svensson. I first witnessed him live with Nils Landgren in 1996, and since 1997 – when e.s.t. became part of the ACT family – I have heard him perform time after time with e.s.t. It must have been at more than easily 50 concerts. It is always fascinating to observe e.s.t. giving each performance a different twist and how they take every new audience through a range of emotion that runs from trance through to ecstasy. The evening of November the 22nd 2006 in the Musikhalle Hamburg was special even by e.s.t. standards. As the final concert of the Tuesday Wonderland tour came to a close, I felt that I had experienced the absolute best e.s.t. concert ever. The band had played their hearts out once again, and the Hamburg audience loved them to bits. The NDR had recorded the concert and I could not wait to listen to the music once more with a little more distance. When I received the recording from Burkhard Hopper, the manager of e.s.t., it was clear that I had not deceived myself: e.s.t. had made history that evening.” SIGGI LOCH e.s.t.
