The Swedish jazz musician Bernt Rosengren has by international jazz critics been cherished as one of Europe´s most important voices on tenor sax & flute. With his own quartet (an ”A-Team” of Scandinavia´s best musicians!) he´s been touring extensively and the group has in reviews been called ”one of Europe´s best jazz quartets”.

Now it´s time for a new release from this quartet – following the CD ”I´m Flying” (PB7 014), their latest album, which was voted ”the best jazz record of 2009 in Sweden”! ”Plays Swedish Jazz Compositions” consists of only Swedish jazz tunes, composed b some of the legendary Swedish Jazz musicians which Bernt has worked with over the years. You can also find some tunes composed by Bernt himself.
