Hans Ulrik

Latest release from Danish saxophonist Hans Ulrik.

Suite Of Time, publié sur le label Stunt, distribué par Una Volta Music, consiste en 4 mouvements, un prélude, un sacrement et un postlude inspirés par un texte de l'historien Henrik Jensen retraçant les différentes périodes historiques que l'église a traversées. Ainsi seront évoquées musicalement les années 1945, 1967, 1989 et 2001 et après - moments charnières de l'époque dans laquelle nous vivons - et sur lesquelles se tournent les regards d'Ulrik et de ses musiciens.

When I was asked to pick a "dream team" for the 1999 Jazzpar Combo I hadn't in my wildest dreams imagined that I would succeed in bringing together this band. Usually you are allowed to choose one guest star - I got three! When I realized my luck I knew instantly with such first-rate musicians as Scofield, Erskine and Lars very few directions were called for. These guys are not "only" amazing instrumentalist, they are also composers and band leaders in their own right, and it would be s shame not to make use of all abilities. So I asked all three of them to bring along some of their own compositions and tried to keep in the background during our rehearsals.
