A stellar hour for one of today's prime composers and performers in jazz & beyond.

It has been said and written many times - still, it simply can't be overstated: Norwegian Marius Neset is not only one of the most virtuoso and recognizable saxophonists of our time. He is also one of the most accomplished and visionary composers in jazz & beyond. And his composition "Geyser" commissioned by the BBC Proms performed at the Royal Albert Hall indeed is the climax of his impressive and unique work.

"An exciting journey of truly volcanic energy and intensity" — BBC
