Description
Jazz on life and death! In There Is No Future, Swedish jazz singer Sara Alden makes her album debut with self-written music and arranged jazz standards with a focus on grand crescendos and vulnerable intimacy. She creates jazz as if her life depended on it where the question of the end of everything is allowed to exist, the small endings and the big ones. Sara Alden and her trio present a musical sinkhole in the ongoing history of jazz, where doom-filled and intimate compositions alternate with dizzying arpeggios and dystopian and lyrical sound worlds. The album begins with saturated arrangements and dense compositions filled with energy and drive to gradually turn into open hopelessness and question marks. "What a Wonderful World" closes the album where time is reminded and throws the listener into a rocking vacuum. Sara Alden (voice), August Bjorn (piano) and Daniel Andersson (double bass) explore how contemporary jazz expresses itself when three musicians from the Nordic countries come together.
