Info zu Some Other Time: 60 Years of Monica Zetterlund & Bill Evans

Für Anna Greta war Waltz for Debby immer mehr als nur ein Album - es ist ein Meisterwerk, das nie verblasst. Die kultige Zusammenarbeit zwischen Bill Evans und Monica Zetterlund verschmilzt nahtlos amerikanischen Jazz mit nordischen Folk-Traditionen und schafft eine zeitlose Verbindung, die ihre eigene musikalische Reise tief beeinflusst hat.

Mit Some Other Time zollt Anna Greta zwei ihrer musikalischen Vorbilder Tribut und fängt den Geist und die Schönheit ihrer Zusammenarbeit ein. Als persönliche Note webt sie eines ihrer eigenen isländischen Volkslieder ein - und bringt damit ein Stück ihres Erbes in den Mix ein.

Some Other Time ist eine herzliche Hommage und ein Fest der musikalischen Traditionen, eine zutiefst persönliche und stimmungsvolle Hommage an ein Album, das Generationen inspiriert.

It features some of Iceland's most prominent jazz musicians, produced by Anna Gréta and Albert Finnbogason. Skúli Sverrisson, Einar Scheving, Johan Tengholm, Hilmar Jensson, Sigurður Flosason, Magnus Trygvason Eliassen, and Ragnheiður Gröndal.

In recent years Anna Gréta has received numerous awards and nominations in both Sweden and Iceland, including the prestigious Monica Zetterlund award in 2019, Jazz Club Fasching Society Award in 2018, Best Newcomer in Jazz at the Icelandic music prize in 2015, nomination by the Swedish National Radio for Jazzkatten in 2019 and two nominations for the Icelandic Music Prize in 2019. Anna Gréta is presently among Scandinavia's fastest-rising young jazz musicians.

“Anna Gréta shows an impressive musical spectrum; from a lyrical and harmonically intricate solo-piano playing to a more brilliant, communicative way of playing with both large and small ensembles. She is a great listener and her rhythmic flow of tones reminds you of Keith Jarrett and the atmosphere of the Icelandic folk music.“ (Jazz Club Fasching Society Award 2018)
