Ny single udkommer 24. april – Carsten Lindholm Exchange | Aeby Kruse Lindholm


The Shifting Of The Winds / Song Of The Ship

Et medley af kompositioner af Fredrik Lundin og Marilyn Mazur.

Presave-link

Singlen udgives i forbindelse med projektet Dansk Jazz 100 år – Carsten Lindholm Exchange, historien bliver levende. Formålet er, at gøre dansk jazzhistorie levende og nutidig, og for at hylde danske jazzkomponister – også kvindelige pionerer.

Aeby’s dynamiske udtryk på piano, og Eva Kruses lette og udtryksfulde bas, synes jeg får numrene til at leve.

I projektet har jeg sammensat nogle numre af de komponister, der har betydet mest for mig gennem tiden. Her er jeg meget inspireret af Lundin og Mazur. Deres kompositioner er baseret på en stærk melodi, hvilket med mine rødder i nordisk jazz – gør det fantastisk at arbejde med.

Jeg har i arrangementet af singlen, forsøgt at ære selve kompositionerne uden at lave for meget om. I The Shifting of The Winds (Lundin), udfordrede jeg dog med at ændre fra Robato (fleksibelt tempo) til time (fastsat tempo).
Jeg har taget et brudstykke af Marilyn Mazur’s, Song of The Ship og brugt som outro – da numrene har en masse til fælles.

Jeg er dybt taknemmelig for, at både Fredrik og Marilyn har ladet mig benytte deres kompositioner. For begges positive tilgang, og Marilyn’s glæde, optimisme og understøttende tilgang til projektet.
