Bassist Anders Jormin steps out with one of his projects, with an
ensemble formed for the Swedish Jazz Celebration 2010. Anders sets his
own lyrics written in ancient Latin and poetry of Denmark's Pia
Tafdrup for singers Mariam Wallentin and Erika Angell. Anders: "Latin
seems to carry an almost magic ability to embrace and express whatever
humanity has needed to communicate. The sense of eternity and mystery of
this ancient language joined with the instantaneous presence and
creativity of true improvisers became the inspiring framework in which
the distinctive compositions came alive." Improvisers on hand are the
great Swedish free sax player Fredrik Ljungkvist and Jormin's highly
expressive partner from the Bobo Stenson Trio, drummer Jon FaIt.
