He is far too classy and refined a musician to indulge in superficial virtuosic display. Danielsson’s well honed, naturally lyrical improvisational lines remain at the service of the flow of the music, something particularly noticeable when he steps forward and takes on the role of soloist. These core traits are also there in his extensive and much-praised work as arranger, composer and bandleader. Classical music and jazz are the two determining poles of Danielsson’s musical career. He says – with a smile – that “the question whether I am a jazz musician would be answered with a ‘yes’ from the musicians in the orchestra… but if I were to ask Wynton Marsalis, it would probably be a ‘no’.” Danielsson feels comfortable in the space between classical music and jazz. His first music teacher was a church organist, and the folklore of his native Sweden has also been ever-present in his musical identity. As a young cellist, he played a lot in orchestras. With his double album, ‘Symphonized’, Lars Danielsson is now fulfilling a dream. Some of the musicians of the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra were his contemporaries at the conservatoire. In 2008, he recorded his own music with this orchestra for the first time. In 2017 the orchestra’s coranglais (English horn) player Björn Bohlin was allowed to pick a composer to write for the orchestra, and he commissioned Danielsson: 2018 they played the ‘Concerto for English Horn and Contrabass’ live for the first time, then in 2019 the recording took place, this time with Carolina Grinne as soloist on English horn and oboe. Two years later, the opportunity arose to record extra material at the same location. The classical jazz connection is of course, fraught with danger, something of which Lars Danielsson is very aware. This awareness is precisely what makes the ‘Symphonized’ recordings so effective, because he writes for orchestral musicians in the way they are used to, it doesn’t cross his mind to ask them to play jazz. “I hope to know my way around their instruments well enough to be able to write for them in a way that sounds the best possible.” A cinematic wide- screen music has emerged, with echoes of Claus Ogermann, Nino Rota or Ennio Morricone, perhaps. And from there it is not too far to thoughts of Maurice Ravel, to whom Claude Debussy once said: “Pleasure is the law.” Artist Lars Danielsson Genre Jazz Label ACT Buying Options 2LP Format 2LP Condition New Country UK Track Listings LP1 ‘Liberetto Symphonized’ Liberetto Passacaglia Africa Sacred Mind Lviv Nikita‘s Dream The Fifth Grade Yes to You LP2 ‘Double Concerto for English Horn / Oboe D ́Amore, Contrabass / Cello and Orchestra’ I Affettuoso II Elegi Intermedium III Le Bagatelle IV Scherzo Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Jazz View Product Quick View Stanley Turrentine Rough & Tumble Jazz | Blue Note Tone Poet | 180g, 1LP Released 4th February 2022 £40.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Stanley Turrentine Rough & Tumble £40.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Blue Note Tone Poet SKU: 3538218 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 4th February 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Anne Bisson Blue Mind Jazz | Fidelio Audio | 180g, 1LP Released 10th December 2013 £35.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Anne Bisson Blue Mind £35.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Fidelio Audio SKU: AFDA025 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 10th December 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Ezra Collective You Steal My joy Jazz | Enter The Jungle | 1LP Released 26th April 2019 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Ezra Collective You Steal My joy £22.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Enter The Jungle SKU: ETJ006 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 26th April 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Billie Holiday Lady Sings The Blues Jazz | Verve | 180g, 1LP Released 21st March 2016 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Billie Holiday Lady Sings The Blues £22.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Verve SKU: 5345887 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 21st March 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Dave Brubeck Kurhaus 1967 (The Lost Recordings) Jazz | The Lost Recordings | 180g, 2LP Released 11th September 2023 £57.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Dave Brubeck Kurhaus 1967 (The Lost Recordings) £57.00 Genre: Jazz Label: The Lost Recordings SKU: TLR 1704025V Formats: 180g, 2LP Released Date: 11th September 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Roy Haynes With Phineas Newborn & Paul Chambers We Three Jazz | Concord | 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 19th May 2014 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Roy Haynes With Phineas Newborn & Paul Chambers We Three £20.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Concord SKU: 7235118 Formats: 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 19th May 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Various Artists Blue Note Re:Imagined Jazz | Decca | 2LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 20th April 2024 £34.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Various Artists Blue Note Re:Imagined £34.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Decca SKU: 5875640 Formats: 2LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 20th April 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Harold Land The Fox Jazz | Contemporary Records (Acoustic Sounds Series) | 180g, 1LP Released 12th April 2024 £35.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Harold Land The Fox £35.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Contemporary Records (Acoustic Sounds Series) SKU: 7255531 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 12th April 2024 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Pharoah Sanders Africa Jazz | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 2LP Released 21st July 2023 £34.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Pharoah Sanders Africa £34.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP2947O Formats: 180g, 2LP Released Date: 21st July 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Pascal Niggenkemper, Simon Nabatov and Gerald Cleaver Upcoming Hurricane Jazz | No Business | 180g, 1LP Released 23rd July 2012 £27.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Pascal Niggenkemper, Simon Nabatov and Gerald Cleaver Upcoming Hurricane £27.00 Genre: Jazz Label: No Business SKU: NBLP40 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 23rd July 2012 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Jazz Start again
