Real ensemble with a new album release. Jacob Anderskov is inspired by a Miles Davis quote: 'You listen... then you play'. However, reacting to each other in a meaningful way requires listening to your surroundings while staying true to yourself. This is a real ensemble. Which is exactly how Jacob Anderskov describes his new album and his role as a composer and practising musician. Jacob Anderskov's band consists of three strings, Peter Bruun on drums, and the bandleader. His work seeks the ideal encounter where each band member's identity and integrity remains intact. RESONANCE is Jacob Anderskov's second album featuring strings. The precursor STRINGS, PERCUSSION & PIANO was nominated in the category 'Special Release of the Year' at the 2013 Danish Music Awards and was praised by Politiken, who called it an 'excellent' record and gave it five hearts. Nonetheless, Jacob Anderskov is an explorative artist whose newest release features more pulse and phrasing, in other words, feeling. Through his compositions, he attempts to create a universe where the sound and texture of strings are an equal musical element. Where they don't play 'metronomically' but as a backdrop. Jacob Anderskov and Peter Bruun remain true to their point of departure. They stand by their intuition for pulse and rhythm without fighting the string section, which plays in beautiful dialogue with Jacob Anderskov's fabulous piano play and Peter Bruun's colourful and nuanced drum kit in a fascinating ensemble. While they were working on the record, Ornette Coleman died. Few musicians have had such a large impact on Anderskov, who chose to honour Coleman with the song 'What Reason Could I Give', which originally appeared on the legendary album Science Fiction. The remaining tunes are all written by Anderskov.
