Space Is the Place (released 2012 in Copenhagen, Denmark by Storyville – 101 4271) is a Contemporary Jazz album by the Danish/Norwegian Dahl/Andersen/Christensen Trio.[1][2]

Review

Carsten Dahl is credited all the compositions on this delicate album, but along the lines he has drawn there are improvised really fresh and sometimes very freely between the three coequal "moment composers". Dahl is a sound processor, and a dynamic composer with such a personal expression that it is almost incomprehensible that he is right up at the top. Arild Andersen is one that really has understood what an enormous talent Dahl is in possession of. The Norwegian super bassist has worked with Dahl for years and the two have a chemistry that is rare. It is a sublime idea to invite the inimitable Jon Christensen on drums, and the result has to come out in the upper end.[1][2]

Reception

The review of the Norwegian newspaper Dagbladet awarded the album dice 6,[1] and the review of the Norwegian electronic newspaper Nettavisen awarded the album dice 5.[2]
