Description

On his new double vinyl album, Jakob Buchanan masterfully blends the ultra-local folk music and the unique character of the
landscape, with some of the world's leading names in modern jazz, and one of Denmark's many great string quartets Artos Quartet A few years ago, jazz composer and trumpeter Jakob Buchanan moved to Mols. Here, he sits and plays in an old circus wagon on Thorup Mark, gazing over the rolling hills and becoming absorbed in an old booklet of folk tunes by the local legend, fiddler Peter Madsen (1865-1900). One autumn day, he tries out the old dance tunes on his trumpet while looking out across the landscape. The tunes turn into hymns, and it feels as if an old soul is reborn floating across the warm, hilly land, a landscape that writes it's own silent music on the horizon every day. Composer and trumpeter Jakob Buchanan was recently honored as Jazz Composer of the Year 2024 at the Danish Music Awards for the album Song & Wind, featuring the Aarhus Jazz Orchestra, Copenhagen Boys' Choir, late percussionist Marilyn Mazur, and conductor Carsten Seyer-Hansen (OUR Recordings). https://www.

He has received numerous awards and honors, including the rare Jan Johansson Prize, the Swedish Radio Guldkatten Award, and The Royal Swedish Academy of Music's Grand Prize.
