O’s Notes: Danish pianist Morten Schantz leads a trio with bassist Morten Ankarfeldt and Janus Templeton on drums. Schantz shows his chops on the title track, one of four originals of nine tunes. “Too Marvelous For Words” lives up to its title, an upbeat tune that is contagious. We also enjoyed their take on Monk’ “Bemsha Swing” and “Ten Indian Commandments”.
