Sunnudjass – Arnold Ludvig Quintet

ARNOLD LUDVIG QUINTET: Arnold Ludvig – bass/composer, Siggi Flosa & Jóel Pálsson – Saxes, Kjartan Valdimars – piano, Einar Scheving – drums.

Arnold Ludvig is the composer for his new Reykjavík based jazz quintet, a high-octane quintet comprised of great musicians, composers, and award winners.

The repertoire consists of new music, which Arnold is currently composing for the quintet’s upcoming album and music from his Copenhagen based sextet’s two critically acclaimed albums, “Voyages” and “Iceland”.

The music is Nordic jazz with a wide variety of stylistic tendencies, such as funk, blues, latin jazz, folk, ethnic, and world music. The approach is high-level interplay and lots of room for improvisation.
