Duo 2 is an album by pianist Kenny Drew and bassist Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen recorded in 1974 and released on the SteepleChase label.[4][5]

Reception

[edit]

The Allmusic review awarded the album 4 stars stating "The pianist's style was largely unchanged from the 1950s except that he had grown a bit as a player and was open to some more modern chord voicings. The music on this encounter with the virtuosic bassist Niels Pederson should easily appeal to Kenny Drew's fans".[1]
