Review edit
The harmonies between the energetic piano by the Swede Oscar Grönberg, and the secure saxophone of Paulsberg, characterize the album. All the compositions are made by Paulsberg, and the music is incessantly in motion, driving dynamics, but carefully lifted by the rhythm section, Hans Hulbækmo (drums) and Trygve Waldemar Fishing (bass).[2]
All About Jazz critique John Kelman, in his review of Paulsberg's album Waltz For Lilli states:
| ... Despite Paulsen finding herself in a multiplicity of contexts, her allegiance to the jazz tradition is abundantly clear with Hanna Paulsberg Concept (HPC), also featuring three other recognition-worthy young Scandinavians. Waltz for Lilli is many things, but one of them is that it swings—and when it swings, it swings hard...[1] |
