Fredar
Irukandji
Daniel Fredar - Henrik Gad - Thomas Markusson - Jon-Erik Björänge
Label: CAM Jazz Presents
CAMJ3310-2
Don't be fooled by the origins of this Scandinavian quartet. Because this group,
led by pianist Daniel Fredar, goes beyond clichés and stereotypes, and only you
can feel the chiaroscuro, in the notes of "Irukandji", reminders of the leading
figures in northern European jazz. The quartet's language is one that's modern and
unique, which cleverly mixes past and present.
Cantabile lyricism makes this latest CAMJazz discovery one of the most exciting
finds currently in circulation in Europe. Fredar pens all the compositions except
for Plumpa (written by drummer/accordion player Jon-Erik Björänge), finding heterogeneous
and unpredictable solutions. In the pianist you can hear echoes of the great masters
of modern piano-playing, however never stealing space from the highly-personal sound
that favors attention to dynamics and establishes continuous dialogue with his fellow
travellers. Just as Federico Scoppio writes in the liner notes "A CD with a striking
emotional impact and visionary power, it follows tradition: it narrates to excite
more than teach".
