Sketches & Fancies

Harald Svensson and his unique undecet take us on a journey through the world of improvised art music. One of the driving forces on the Swedish improv scene since the 70s, known from ensembles such as Egba, Entra Live & Priming Orchestra, Svensson is also a highly appreciated solo pianist. He moves freely between genres and partners with classical and improv musicians alike. In this undecet, Svensson joins forces with ten top-flight musicians in a unique setting to freely interpret his sketches and compositions. This recording took place on a single day in January 2019, at Spinnroad Studios on the outskirts of Gothenburg, Sweden. The album Sketches and Fancies was engineered by Per Sjösten and produced by Harald Svensson & Per Sjösten.
