Middelhavs-stemning møder norsk trompetklang i uovertruffent samarbejde
Hvilken slags jazz spiller de?

Han er teknisk og kompositorisk i verdensklasse og spiller jazz med masser af følelser og stor melodisk bevidsthed. Hans musik er på en gang lyrisk, stemningsfuld og ofte præget af en nostalgisk skønhed, der leder tankerne hen på støvede gader i Buenos Aires. I mødet denne aften med norske Gunnar Halles trompetklang, forenes Russos middelhavs-toner med en klar nordisk jazzlyd.
