Description
Nybyggnan is a folk music saxophone concerto in chamber music format. Its title, meaning 'new building', is a nod to other tunes in Swedish traditional music associated with buildings and construction work. Himself a viola player and holder of a master's degree in folk music composition from the Royal College of Music in Stockholm, Adrian Jones has constructed his concerto in six parts using a set of newly written tunes in a folk idiom and with elements from jazz, heavy rock and classical music. Nybyggnan was composed for Daniel Reid, who as a saxophonist is something of a pioneer in Swedish folk music. Composer and soloist have a shared background going back to their student days, and Nybyggnan is the result of a close collaboration between them. Daniel Reid is joined by a string quartet which includes the composer as well as three other string players; together the five also perform Daniel Reid's own Rings on Water as well as Adrian Jones' arrangement of the traditional Tingsmarschen ('The District Court March').
