Bill Evans

• LIMITED EDITION 3-LP SET

• RELEASED FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER!

• Deluxe 180-gram pressing / Mastered by Bernie Grundman

A collection of never-before-released recordings of jazz piano icon Bill Evans captured live in solo, trio and orchestral settings in Denmark in the mid-to-late 1960s.

An official Elemental Music release in collaboration with the Bill Evans Estate, Treasures is truly a ’holy grail’ discovery culled from the private collection of Danish jazz musician Ole Matthiessen and being released for the very first time as a limited-edition 180-gram 3-LP set (also on a deluxe 2-CD set and digital release).

The LP insert includes an overview by Evans authority Marc Myers, new interviews with trio members Eddie Gomez and Marty Morell, danish musicians Palle Mikkelborg and Alex Riel, producer Peter Larsen, and pianists Matthew Shipp and Ran Blake.
