Laila Andersson Palme

Sabine Erdmann may be a harpsichordist. But she’s also in love with her organ. So, she instantly caught fire when two friends suggested she should record a CD on it with music from the time of Heinrich Biber. There was no deeper concept, no precise plan.

Immediately, they began searching for rewarding and surprising repertoire.

Jazz on life and death! In There Is No Future, Swedish jazz singer Sara Aldén makes her album debut with self-written music and arranged jazz standards with a focus on grand crescendos and vulnerable intimacy. She creates jazz as if her life depended on it where the question of the end of everything is allowed to exist, the small endings and the big ones. Sara Aldén and her trio present a musical sinkhole in the ongoing history of jazz, where doom-filled and intimate compositions alternate with dizzying arpeggios and dystopian and lyrical sound worlds.

For the vast majority, he is well known from the Swedish supergroup ABBA. London Philharmonic Orchestra, with the Swedish violin soloist Christian Svarfvar, will release their own selection of Benny Andersson's most beloved compositions this spring.
