Description
Christina Dahl is a bandleader and composes music for small & larger ensembles. She is one of the most respected saxophonists in Denmark, and has appeared in a myriad of contexts, and is characterised by her unique tone and lyrical interpretations.
Christina Dahl Quartet consists of some of the most exciting musicians in Denmark, including guitarist Niclas Knudsen, playful bassist and cellist Nils Bosse Davidsen, drummer Espen Laub von Lillienskjold, who adds a great dynamic energy to the music.
The music is organic with a spiritual and sensual openness and brought out into the edges of life with a clear lyrical sense. It is beautiful and strong interplay that creates a present sound illustration. The quartet plays with a dedicated fervour and heartfelt interaction, where the instruments talk to each other, giving an impression of a common vision and direction.
Christina Dahl has received the Bent Jædig Prize 2010 & Honorary Award by the composer association DJBFA 2011 and Walther Klæbels Mindelegat 2012. Christina has also received the Ben Webster Prize in 1994.
