Info for Minimalism
Casper is a young, critically acclaimed jazz guitarist, composer, and improviser from Denmark. And we had a wonderful time in the studio recording a couple of tunes and improvisations.
The album title "Minimalism" obviously refers to minimalistic music, which ironically isn’t the case for this album. Minimalism has been - for me - not a style, but more like a mentality that has helped me restraining myself in both terms of composition and improvisation.
The creative process leading up to this album has in general given me more faith in myself as an artist.
"I learned – and I am still learning – how to respect the music and the space surrounding it, which basically means that I decided to stop playing to impress people and instead started playing for the sake of playing music." (Casper Hejlesen)

Casper Hejlesen
is a danish price winning guitarist and composer based in Aalborg. He finds his inspiration in modern guitar players such as Reinier Baas, Pedro Martins, Jakob Bro, Kurt Rosenwinkel etc, but also finds a lot of inspiration in the indie-pop and folk-scene with artists such as Andy Shauf and Mac DeMarco. Casper is currently working on finishing music for his up-comming debut album, which will feature some of the finest young musicians of Denmark. This day he will be performing with his "Aalborg Band", which consists of students at the conservatory.
This album contains no booklet.
