    Overview

    Four outstanding Scandinavian musicians offer their ‘reinvention of Monteverdi in the spirit of jazz’. Svante Henryson, composer and cellist, and his regular quartet partners offer improvisations that connect directly with the timeless qualities of the Italian composer’s music to create dazzling melodies, fiery rhythms and rich new soundworlds.
