Örjan Hultén & Orion (Sweden)

This Swedish band is part of the new movement in European Jazz bringing Nordic rhythms and atmospheres to life. Örjan Hultén, one of Sweden's foremost saxophonists and improvisers, is a musical explorer always looking for the next challenge. His critically acclaimed quartet Orion was conceived from Örjan's impulse to create something altogether fresh in 2009. The quartet has recorded four albums and the latest, Minusgrader this year, and has received stunning reviews.

Line Up: Orjan Hulten– sax, Torbjorn Gutz– piano, Filip Augustson– bass & Peter Danemo
