“Marius Neset combines Brecker’s power and Jan Garbarek’s tonal delicacy, [...]. He is on his way to being one of the biggest new draws on the circuit.” (The Guardian)
Marius Neset is Europeâs most exciting saxophonist. Circle of Chimes is arguably his most personal and complete recording to date, so compelling, from first chime to last. Deft, poignant and jam-packed with ideas, it offers a kaleidoscopic wide-angle lens on the state of contemporary art music. Neset conceives such incredibly elaborate stories that they can sometimes be overwhelming to take in at one hearing â but Circle of Chimes becomes a joy as that intricate weave is gradually understood. Neset again takes a spectacular leap forward in redefining the role of composition in the contemporary jazz and improvising world. âThis album is more personal to me than any other album I have made,â he says. âA lot of things were changing in my life and that was inspiration for the ideas on the album. Itâs the darkest, most melancholic album I have made so far, even if it has lots of brighter moments on it as well.â
