Gnu Quartet & Norchestra: Suite for the Seagulls - 4th movement

Commissioned work written by Alf Wilhelm Lundberg for the magical meeting between Gnu Quartet (IT) and Norchestra (NO), two highly unique ensembles on the european contemporary jazzscene today. This videorecording is from the premiere of the commissioned work supported by Art's Counsil Norway at Sildajazz, Haugesund, August 2010. This 4th movement is arranged and written by Alf Wilhelm Lundberg, while the other six movements were written by Lundberg and arranged in collaboration with the members of Gnu Quartet.

We plan to release this music before summer of 2012, and we're working on organizing a European tour from May until September 2012, if you're interested in booking a concert with us please contact us at booking@acousticlandscapes.com
