Marius Neset is working hard to become one of the leading European saxophonists of our time. The Norwegian talent conquered the world with his debut
Golden Xplosion which he performed at the North Sea Jazz Festival in 2012. Now, two years later, Neset is back with his latest project with the Trondheim Jazz Orchestra with whom he released the album
Lion this spring. It reveals his qualities in making new compositions with an unusually broad spectrum of colors and musical structures. A mix of jazz, rock, electronic and classical music,
Lion delivers exciting and atmospheric arrangements that represent both the spooky silence and epic space of the Norwegian landscape, as well as the groove and hustle and bustle of every metropolis visited on Neset’s musical travels.
