In the spring of 1998, I received a commission from Rikskonserter to compose 40 minutes of music. I wrote a piece titled Solf\u00e9ge Syncope<\/em>, which premiered during the Stockholm Jazz Festival that year, at the venue now known as Musikaliska.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This led to an opportunity in 2000 to do a longer tour with my ensemble, organized by Rikskonserter (The Swedish Concert Institute). All the concerts were recorded by our sound engineer, Surte Norin. I later selected a number of these recordings, which became our debut CD aLive<\/em>. The album was released by Dragon Records and received very positive reviews in the Nordic music press.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A bit of technical background: when it came time to mix the album, sound engineer Johannes Lundberg discovered that the two tape machines used during the recordings had not been properly synchronized, resulting in strange audio artifacts. Fortunately, Johannes was able to re-sync the recordings afterward, making it possible to use the material.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Although aLive<\/em> is long out of print and not available on streaming platforms, it can probably be found through second-hand dealers or antiquarian bookshops.

    Here’s a treat, one song that gives a glimpse of the vibe on the album. Listen to the fiery solo battle between Staffan Svensson – trumpet, and Cennet J\u00f6nson – soprano saxophone. <\/p>\n\n\n
