Carl Liungman’s "Saint" is a breathtaking piece of neoclassical-jazz, written as an honorific for his late parents. It doesn't rush toward closure; it lingers beautifully at the threshold between presence and absence.
Liungman's performance is quiet, patient, and full of grace—recalling the inward tenderness of Nils Frahm, yet remaining wholly sincere and unmistakably his own. The piano breathes between the chords, turning grief into gentle reconciliation.
Listen to this quiet act of faith. A beautiful bridge between the living and the lost.
