The core of the album consists of recordings made at a summer 2022 studio session lasting several days. In reality, it is only Nils Landgren and Siggi Loch who could have brought this panorama of musical Europe into being. The influences here range from jazz, popular song and folk to classical and contemporary music, and much more. Thirty tracks from three generations of musicians marking thirty years of ACT, with Nils Landgren as driving force. Not just a retrospective, but above all an insight into the present and future of the discovery label \"in the Spirit of Jazz\".","brand":"ACT","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":44945488642282,"sku":"614427995827","price":24.81,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/3423\/3066\/files\/4145978-2901163.jpg?v=1778350364"},{"product_id":"letter-to-eje-thelin","title":"Letter to Eje Thelin","description":"When Goteborg Jazz Orchestra (GJO) - and the   founders Mats Eklund and Johnny Olsson - laid out   plans for the band's Monday night concerts for 2021   they came up with the concert series \"Swedish Jazz   Heroes\", playing the music and telling the story of the   role models who have shaped Swedish jazz of today.

Albums such as Redhorn and Live in Stockholm with Maceo Parker are examples of some of the influences that they have \"marinated\" in their long-standing collaboration with Michael Ruff, Randy Brecker, Brenda Russell, etc. Studio Tan emerged out of the desire to continue building on common experiences and create a collective musical frame on a platform where they could meet and create musical moments for themselves and their audience.","brand":"Prophone","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":46025334718698,"sku":"822359001190","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/3423\/3066\/files\/1973737_ff007358-0622-4d11-a2ab-3b83875295e0.jpg?v=1778305740"},{"product_id":"unstatic-49921","title":"Unstatic","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe cover art for Manu Katché’s excellent new disc is somewhat misleading. It depicts the drummer alone, thrashing away at his kit, but \u003cem\u003eUnstatic\u003c\/em\u003e is, at heart, an accomplished \u003cem\u003eteam\u003c\/em\u003e effort, crafted by a cohesive ensemble. Katché takes the spotlight here not with flashy rhythm patterns but with his compositional acumen and outstanding leadership. He wrote all 11 tunes, most of which are quintet or sextet arrangements, with exemplary trombonist Nils Landgren playing on five tracks. Katché seems to have composed these songs with specific instrumentation in mind, as evidenced by the gentle, nuanced dialogs by pianist Jim Watson and saxophonist Tore Brunborg that open “Blossom” and “Daze Days.” Those two numbers illustrate Katché’s ability to create accessible material that will appeal to smooth-jazz fans \u003cem\u003eand\u003c\/em\u003e devotees of straightahead jazz. Indeed, he’s a skillful balladeer, but he’s just as accomplished as a groove merchant. The track “City” offers a hip-swaying groove with a touch of light funk, resulting in a head-bobber that’s peppered with a potent motif from trumpeter Luca Aquino. Katché is acutely sensitive to the narrative arc of this 51-minute program. He is also keenly aware of the ebb and flow of musical intensity, which he intentionally dials down at the album’s midpoint before building it back up with simmering flare on the eighth track, “Ride Me Up.” On the album’s final track, Katché offers a charming, spoken-word introduction of his bandmates. The French drummer has won tremendous respect as a sideman for Sting, Peter Gabriel and Joni Mitchell, but with \u003cem\u003eUnstatic\u003c\/em\u003e, Katché shows that a generosity of spirit can help a fine accompanist become a great leader. - \u003cem\u003eDownBeat Magazine Editors' Pick\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Anteprima Production","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":46026656907498,"sku":"3700187662226","price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/3423\/3066\/files\/3413420.jpg?v=1778284595"}],"url":"https:\/\/arkivmusic.com\/collections\/nils-landgren.oembed","provider":"ArkivMusic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
