On the album Duo Dialogue with Per Thornberg and Hans Backenroth, the standout track Expedition 721 showcases the remarkable talent of Swedish saxophonist Börje Fredriksson (1937-1968). This blues piece features a playful and intricate theme, followed by improvised phrases that echo the same spirit. Despite the simplicity of instrumentation with just double bass and saxophone, the track swings effortlessly, thanks to the responsive interplay between the musicians.
Expedition 721 is a testament to Fredriksson’s artistry and serves as a captivating highlight on the album, demonstrating the timeless appeal of his music.”
