about

Christina Dahl Quartet consists of some of the most exciting and respected musicians in Denmark. The guitarist Niclas Knudsen, who has his own unique expression, embraces the music with magic and creates inner images. Nils Bosse Davidsen, who is an extremely creative and playful bassist & cellist, manages to give a touching & sensuous experience, Espen Laub von Lillienskjold, who is super creative and varies the sounds on the drums, adds a great dynamic & energy to the music.

The quartet appears as an original group with its very own personal musical expression. Based on Christina's compositions, all reflecting life and its wealth of dynamics and colors, the Quartet tells stories. The music is organic with a spiritual and sensual openness and brought out into the edges of life with a clear lyrical sense. It is beautiful and strong interplay that creates a present sound illustration. The quartet plays with a dedicated fervor and heartfelt interaction, where the instruments talk to each other, giving an impression of a common vision and direction.

Christina Dahl is a bandleader and composes music for small & larger ensembles. She is one of the most respected saxophonists in Denmark, and has appeared in a myriad of contexts, and is characterized by her unique tone and lyrical interpretations. She masters the ability to maintain an intensity and vicinity in her music. Her playing varies from the most intimate and understated to the abstract and the wild. Christina Dahl received Bent Jædig Price 2010 & Honorary Award by the composer association DJBFA 2011 and Walther Klæbels Mindelegat 2012. Christina has also received the Ben Webster Prize in 1994.
