DESCRIPTION:In dieser Edition unserer HOMAGE SESSION wird Das World-Jazz-En
 semble der WERKSTATT DER KULTUREN\, die Little Big Band\, das Album 'The B
 irth And Rebirth Of Swedish Folk Jazz' von Bengt-Arne Wallin spielen.'The 
 Birth And Rebirth Of Swedish Folk Jazz' von Bengt-Arne WallinJazz is World
  music in the best possible sense. Ever since jazz began to exist in the m
 ulticultural melting pot of New Orleans it was basically a mixture of musi
 cs from Africa and Europe and is by today the most important music created
  in the 20th century. Jazz is the musical language that fulfils the vision
  of a modern society of getting people together to create\, work and commu
 nicate by searching for one common goal: freedom of the individual within 
 a group of equals.As Afro-American musicians such as John Coltrane redisco
 vered their musical heritage and made it part of their musical expression\
 , likewise\, and around the same time\, European musicians became fascinat
 ed by their own rich and musically valid folk music and incorporated this 
 into their jazz language. Bengt-Arne Wallin recorded in 1962 his 'Old Folk
 lore In Swedish Modern' stimulated by Quincy Jones who lived in Sweden at 
 the time. In retrospect this was the 'Birth Of Swedish Folk Jazz' and was 
 a milestone of folk jazz made in Europe. I remember very well the moment I
  heard this record for the first time during my honeymoon trip to Sweden. 
 Being the label managerfor jazz at Philips at the time I was able to relea
 se this record in Germany in 1963. The release went by unnoticed then but 
 the music never left me. Thirty years later\, now a producer for my own la
 bel\, I asked Michael Gibbs to write EUROPEANA and recorded it in 1995 wit
 h Joachim Kühn and the Radio Philharmonie Hannover for ACT 9220-2 and dedicated
  the record to Bengt-Arne Wallin. It was only in 1996 that I finally met w
 ith my hero in person while visiting my friend Nils Landgren in Stockholm 
 and couldn 't rest before finding the original tapes of 'Old Folklore In S
 wedish Modern' and to makethis great music available again afterthree deca
 des of absence from the record market. Thanks to Rainer Haarmann who accep
 ted the idea to invite Bengt-Arne Wallin to the JazzBaltica Festival and t
 o have this music performed in public for the very first time by the Jazz-
 Baltica Ensemble in June of 1997 in Salzau\, Germany. It became the greate
 st success in the seven year history of the JazzBaltica Ensemble and I am 
 more then proud to be able to release the NDR live recording of 1997 side 
 by side with the original recordings of 1962 as the Birth and the Re-Birth
  of Swedish Folk Jazz on my label ACT. (Review by Siegfried Loch/ACT) Beng
 t-Arne Wallin (1926-2015) war ein schwedischer Jazzmusiker (Komponist\, Ar
 rangeur\, Trompeter und Flügelhornist)\, der für von der schwedischen Volksmusik bee
 influssten modernen Jazz bekannt ist. 1962 und 2002 wurde er mit dem schwe
 dischen Jazzpreis Gyllene Skivan ausgezeichnet. Für seine Musikproduktion Visa 
 fran Barnrike erhielt er 1970 den internationalen Radiopreis Prix Triumph 
 Variete. 2010 wurde er mit dem schwedischen Django d?Or als ?Master of Jaz
 z? gewürdigt.LITTLE BIG BANDOb Opern- oder Konzerthaus\, Theater oder Musicalbühne\;
