From LP "The Asmussen Thigpen Quartet" 1974. Rec. Jazzhus Montmartre June 1973. Svend Asmussen, Kjell Öhmann (0rgan), Mads Vinding (bass), Ed Thigpen (drums). Only the organ-manuscript was available, the violin-part is a transcription. Svend plays rhythmically very freely, laid back, and it is impossible to notate. Some of the fast notes were difficult to recognize. Part B goes in tempo with the hihat on all beats and is an ornamented version of the second part of the original melody. In part C Öhmann plays freely over the chords. The 1975-version of Delsbo (on Trio-LP “Musik I Kyrkan”) is based on the same arrangement but is played rubato throughout with Putte Wickman and Svend Asmussen alternating and ornamenting the melody, while Ivan Renlieden with virtuosity uses all 88 keys of the piano.
