Unspoken by Sunna Gunnlaugs and Maarten Ornstein
Dutch reedist Maarten Ornstein teams up with the Icelandic pianist Sunna Gunnlaugs for a recording of material generated by a chance online connection via Twitter, which has turned out to be an enduring collaboration. The project is as much an examination of how two distinct musical personalities converse as it is a presentation of two instruments that couldn't be more perfectly suited to each other.

"Fine musicians seem to be among Iceland's most visible exports these days, and pianist Sunna Gunnlaugs is proof that jazz is as much a part of the picture as the pop of Björk or Sigur Ros."
