"Lundgaard and Vinding speak jazz fluently in a 10-song conversation that takes in standards, works from Danish composers, and even an Irish traditional piece with a subtlety, grace and intimacy few duos possess. This disc is all about being acoustic, so traditional jazz fans will revel in these two bassists' clean, woody sound, and marvel at the duo's speed, accuracy and intonation.

Although there aren't any particularly fast pieces on the album, the great improvised lines coupled with the sensitivity and intuition between the two artists will fully compensate the listener... There's only one thing better than an expressive, mature bass filled with fresh, effervescent ideas; and that's Two Basses." ~ Joshua Kline, Double Bassist
