Musician

Marius Neset

Born:

Marius Neset (b. 1985) remembers his very first experiences as an instrumentalist, well before he took up the saxophone at the age of eight: “As a 5-year old kid, I got a drum set,” he says, “and it was the beginning of an incredibly exciting – and rhythmical, musical journey. From the beginning, it felt natural to me to play around with grooves in different odd meters, and play around with different polyrhythms too.” This particular focus, this ever-present sense of adventure are intrinsic to everything he does, whether working as a solo saxophonist, in a jazz quintet, as part of chamber ensembles or with big bands or symphony orchestras.

Jakub Paulski: Free' Odde

Read "Free' Odde" reviewed by Ian Patterson


After the genre-slippery trio album Preludium (Jazz Sound, 2020), which drew from Jimi Hendrix, Bill Frisell, Dmitri Shostakovich and Henrik Wieniawski--modernists all--for inspiration, Polish guitarist Jakub Paulski stretches his compositional palette in a more personal direction on Free' odde.
