"An exciting journey of truly volcanic energy and intensity," (BBC)
Marius Neset
Few young European jazz musicians in recent years have
garnered as much international attention and sheer astonishment from the press
and audiences as the Norwegian saxophonist Marius Neset, born in 1986.
Those who witnessed his celebrated performances at the
Jazzfest Berlin, Jazzwoche Burghausen, JazzBaltica Festival (in a duo with
Michael Wollny), and most recently at the Cologne Philharmonie were amazed and
remarked, "What Marius Neset does on the saxophone is nothing less than a
step into a new dimension of this instrument" (Süddeutsche Zeitung).
British media share this conviction. The Telegraph speaks of
a "miracle," and The Guardian includes Neset among the current
greatest discoveries in jazz, possessing "the power of a Michael Brecker
and the sophistication of a Jan Garbarek."
