Genom att spela in Lars Janssons låtar samt en av mina egna, utforskar jag pianots roll i dessa olika sorters ECM-jazz kompositioner. Jansson låtar är oftast skrivna för en triokonstellation (piano, bas och trummor). I triokonstellation är det viktigt för pianisten att upprätthålla harmonik, rytmik och tema. Kompositionerna har oftast starka teman och pianot en ledande roll. Med min egen komposition ska jag försöka efterlikna Janssons kompositioner, samt undersöka ECMjazzens karaktäristiska kännetecken.

Studien syftar till att få en djupare insikt i hur pianopedagoger definierar begreppen timing och sväng samt hur de ser på undervisning när det gäller dessa. Jag är intresserad av att hitta didaktiska redskap och metoder för att på ett konkret sätt kunna tillämpa timing och sväng i pianoundervisningen.Undersökningen genomfördes med hjälp av en kvalitativ intervju-form där jag intervjuade fyra pianopedagoger, med inriktning jazz, verksamma på olika musikhögskolor och konservatorier. Resultatet visar, enligt respondenternas tolkning, att timing och sväng spelar en viktig roll i musiken i stort.
