Om utgivelsen
Marius Neset tenor & soprano saxophones
Anton Eger drums & percussion
Bergen Big Band
Norwegian saxophonist Marius Neset is one of the most virtuosic and musically complex players of our time—and a masterful composer and arranger for large ensembles, from orchestra to big band. Time to Live, recorded with the Bergen Big Band and drummer Anton Eger, reflects a guiding idea that runs consistently through Neset’s work: music as a source of strength and confidence in dark times.
