Geir Lysne wins prestigious European music award "Geir Lysne Listening Ensemble" won the prestigious 'Jahrespreis der Deutschen Schallplattenkritik' (The German critique award) for their release 'Boahjenбsti' (The North Star). This This is the first time this big jazz ensemble wins the price on an independent artistic basis.
"Jahrespreis der Deutschen Schallplattenkritik" is an independent price that is given for up to ten releases each year, that the jury characterize as "outstanding productions". The price is based upon the reviews of over 100 critics who presents their favorite albums, regardless of the label or country the artist originates from.
With this price, "Geir Lysne Listening Ensemble" strengthens their position as one of the most exiting ensembles in contemporary Europe. This year they share the prestigious award with "Berliner Philharharmoniker", "Mariss Jansons", "Simon Rattle" and "Freiburger Barockorchester" among others.
The Jury writes: ”Lysne’s music is brought up to a whole new level with it's unconventional synthesis of the archaic and the experimental”.
"Boahjenбsti" (North Star in the Sami language) is a yoik, written and performed by Johan Sara, arranged by Geir Lysne for the occasion. The rest of this tremendous live recording is from “Cosmopolite” October 2005, and consists of Lysne’s own compositions.
This prize is another example of the ensembles focus on originally composed Norwegian neo-jazz, combined with ensemble-identity on a very high level. This has created a lot of respect in the industry. “It’s especially fun that the yoik and Sami culture has captured the eye of the hardened critics, that usually wades in American stars”, says Lysne.
Geir Lysne will be presented with the award in Berlin, November 18th. The ensemble will show their appreciations by performing a session on this very exclusive arena, which only a few artists get the honors of.
