Q.E.D. (Terje Rypdal album)


Q.E.D. is an album of contemporary classical music by guitarist Terje Rypdal recorded in 1991 and released on the ECM label in 1993.

Reception

The Allmusic review by Paul Collins awarded the album 3 stars stating "Rypdal often alternates sections of great dissonance with near silence, or lonely sustained notes by just one or two instruments. It can have the sweeping starkness of a tracking shot over a fjord, but there's a certain coldness to it as well, and even confirmed fans of his jazz work may take a while to warm up to it".
