As spring crawls on our doorstep SKOGEN returns with their brand new album “I Döden” (In Death), the fourth mark in their legacy of bleak, dark and highly atmospheric musical adventure. Taking a few steps back to the days of “Vittra” and “Svitjod” SKOGEN manage to blend the past, combined with new fantastic elements that surely reflects their always recognizable sound in a most pleasant way. “I Döden” is a gloomy journey through hollow stone lands that places it’s listener on a pedal of northern darkness and death! The strongest and most mature SKOGEN release up to this date!

Queen legend Brian May and first lady of the West End Kerry Ellis come together for The Candlelight Concerts. This great performance, filmed at the renowned Stravinski Auditorium during the Montreux Jazz Festival in July 2013, this wonderfully intimate show blends Kerry Ellis' beautiful voice with the sympathetic guitar playing of Brian May for a largely acoustic performance of standards, ballads, Queen's songs and cover versions.

Portuguese singer-songwriter, composer and multi-instrumentalist Carmen Souza has one of the most unique and refreshing voices in the current jazz scene. Her unconventional scatting combines traditional jazz techniques with Cape Verdean (her family is of Cape Verdean origin) influences. Carmen Souza’s musical character really stands out. While many female jazz vocalists are recording standards and new material with smooth jazzy arrangements, Carmen’s style is much creative and attractive. She presents a spicy mix of originals and standards where jazz and global sounds come together. Carmen uses jazz as a foundation and adds Cape Verdean traditional music such as batuke, morna, and cola djon; Gypsy jazz; and Brazilian rhythms to her sound.

A member of the Berlin Philharmonic since 2002, Stefan Schulz is one of the world’s leading bass trombonists. This recital programme was recorded live at a concert in the Chamber Music Hall of the Berliner Philharmonie. The programme was chosen to emphasize the various facets of the bass trombone and in particular its ability to play music of a songful character. This certainly applies to Brahms’ Four Serious Songs, as well as the cantabile works by Lebedev and Šulek as well as Jan Sandström’s simple Song to Lotta, appearing as an encore. To balance the programme Schulz has included a work by Daniel Schnyder, the New York-based composer and saxophonist with whom he collaborates closely.
