Pentimento

“Råberg is his own man and brings his own ideas to the table. For one thing, Råberg sometimes brings elements of Scandinavian folk to Pentimento's jazz foundation....being a gem, Råberg's recording career was off to a decent start with this thoughtful debut.”

Alex Henderson, Rolling Stone

“Reared on the rugged folk music of the Northland, Råberg was schooled in classical European music while playing and studying contemporary Afro-American music (blues, jazz, pop, funk) . On moving to the States in 1981, he got in touch with " standards" and became steeped in more traditional American forms. When it came time to record this, his first album, Råberg thought it over and realized that the various layers of his musical experience had become overwritten and mixed. Hear within what Råberg has reheard.”
