Description

The Swedish jazz pianist and composer Jacob Karlzon creates music for the inner film in his head. This latest album was recorded in January and he says: Im happy when people interpret my music this way. I really do want to take them emotionally out to sea, into a situation where they have to decide in which direction they want to swim.

The album came about in a very intuitive way preceded by a long period of reflection. With Morten Ramsbøl on bass and Rasmus Kihlberg on drums, Karlzon recorded this album, like previous ones, in the Nilento Studio in Göteborg with his producer Lars Nilsson.

Stylistically and musically, Jacob Karlzon is a well-travelled man. Hes a classical pianist but has shared a stage with big names in jazz such as Kenny Wheeler, Norma Winstone, Billy Cobham among others. He forayed into the world of heavy metal with his album More, 2012, and in his last album Now, he allowed electronic elements to set the pulse. No wonder he prefers to describe himself as an alternative musician.

The best thing that can happen to you as an artist is to play for people who didnt know your music before but who are then willing to engage with it. To really feel what Jacob Karlzon wants to tell us, its enough to listen to How it Ends or Ever Changing or Panorama or because its so fitting, Motion Picture.

Let Jacob Karlzon provide the score for your inner film and be taken on a very surprising journey
