Music for Dancers and Dreamers
Lundin/Danemo Kvartet – Music for Dancers and Dreamers
Lundin Danemo Quartet is a collaboration between Swedish drummer and composer Peter Danemo and Danish saxophonist Fredrik Lundin. The group was formed in the early 1990s and became an important presence on the Scandinavian jazz scene.
The quartet toured primarily in Scandinavia, with occasional performances abroad. After a few years, they embarked on a two-week tour in Spain. In 2000, they completed a two-week tour of Australia and Tasmania, followed immediately by a one-week engagement at a jazz club in Hong Kong. Their final concert took place at Copenhagen Jazzhouse in 2004.
Their debut album, Music for Dancers and Dreamers, was released in 1997 on Stunt Records and received highly positive reviews.
