About

Karl-Martin Almqvist, saxophonist and composer, is one of the most uniquely personal voices found on the Swedish jazz scene today. The Karl-Martin Almqvist Quartet has played extensively throughout Scandinavia and has appeared on more than one occasion at the renowned Stockholm Jazz Festival.

The Karl-Martin Almqvist Quartet stands firmly in the grounds of tradition, at the same time as it continuously searches for new streams. Since the last CD, 'Full Circle', the band has developed an even more personal sound both in compositions and interplay.

On 'Stretching the Portfolio' you can find some references to Swedish jazz icons such as Jan Johansson and Lars Gullin; in the tune Senter these influences are very clear. This is Swedish jazz at its best!
