Marius Neset And London Sinfonietta at Turner Sims

About

Norwegian composer and saxophonist Marius Neset leads an orchestral performance of music from his forthcoming new album. Inspired by artists as diverse as Django Bates and Edvard Grieg, Neset’s music draws on a wide palette of sounds, complementing his own sax playing with all manner of brass, strings and percussion to create dense pieces bursting with ideas. Here the dynamics and harmonic layers in his music are fully realised live, performed by the 19-piece London Sinfionetta, joined by a Jazz quartet with Neset at their helm.
