Swedish Jazz CD Sampler Giveaway

The new compilation Swedish Jazz, produced by STIM/Swedish Music Information Centre, features many of Sweden's most exciting jazz artists, live from the Swedish Jazz Celebration 2006.

Swedish jazz has always spanned a wide range of styles, ranging from the classic to the daring and experimental.  Several generations of musicians have made their mark on the Swedish jazz scene, including standouts such as saxophonist Arne Domnérus, clarinetist Putte Wickman, singer Alice Babs, pianist Bobo Stenson, bassist Palle Danielsson and trumpeter Anders Bergcrantz.

STIM/Swedish Music Information Centre has produced a CD sampler with selected music from the Swedish Jazz Celebration 2006.  The disc features several of the biggest and most exciting names in contemporary Swedish jazz, including Lars Jansson Trio, Fabian Kallerdahl Galore, Örjan Hultén Trio, Jeanette Lindström, Midaircondo, Jan Lundgren Trio, Stockholm Jazz Orchestra, and many more.

A limited number of complimentary CDs were available on a first-come, first-served basis from the Consulate General of Sweden in New York, but the offer has expired since we are already OUT OF STOCK.
