Info for Solitary Poems for Soprano Saxophone

Dieses Projekt ist eine kreative Antwort auf die Herausforderungen, die Covid 19 mit sich brachte, nämlich die vollständige »Stilllegung« freischaffender Musiker. Die 23 Weltpremieren wurden alle für Anders Pausson geschrieben, so dass er und die Schöpfer der Werke doch künstlerisch wachsen konnten, als alle Konzerte und Tourneen zum Stillstand kamen. Zugleich erweiterten sie das Repertoire für Sopransaxophon erheblich. Groß sind die stilistischen Unterschiede; manche Stücke sind extrem virtuos, andere eher kontemplativ und lyrisch. Einige erfordern sogar ein zweites Instrument, hier von Theo Hillborg gespielt, und eines ein Didgeridoo, gespielt von Bruce Copley. Ganz besonders apart ist ein Werk, in dem Paulsson mit sich selbst in einen Dialog tritt.

Anders Paulsson, Saxophon




Anders Paulsson
Since his Carnegie Hall debut in 1992, Anders Paulsson (1961) is widely recognized as one of the finest soprano saxophonists in the world. His musicianship has inspired a succession of over 50 international composers to write solo concertos and chamber music for him.

He has performed in major music centres like Alice Tully Hall in New York, Berlin Philharmonie, Concertgebouw Amsterdam, Wigmore Hall in London, Palau de la Musica in Valencia, Moscow International Performing Arts Centre and Kitakyushu Performing Arts Centre i Japan.In 2012 Anders Paulsson was awarded the Royal Gold Medal Litteris et Artibus for his prominent artistic achievements as soprano saxophonist.

Anders has performed hundreds of concerts as a soloist in 25 countries and released 22 CDs. His pioneering CD recording Swedish Concertos for Soprano Saxophone with music by Anders Eliasson, Rolf Martinsson & Sven-David Sandström has received praise in Gramophone as a real high.

He has performed as soloist with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra in Stockholm, the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra and St. Petersburg Philharmonic and has collaborated with conductors such as John Storgårds, Lü Jia, Okku Kamu, Eva Ollikainen, Johannes Gustavsson, Fabio Mastrangelo & Lan Shui.

After classical saxophone studies at the Royal College in Stockholm and with Jean-Marie Londeix in France, a Fulbright ITT International Fellowship enabled him to study with Joseph Allard and Bob Mintzer at Manhattan School of Music, New York City. As a composer, Anders Paulsson was awarded “The Golden Clapperboard” for best original film music in 1994 together with Johan Söderqvist.

2013-2014 Anders Paulsson was Composer-in-Residence at the MIAGI Youth Symphony Orchestra in South Africa.

Many of his performances have been broadcast on international television and radio and his recordings have received high acclaim from music critics and audiences worldwide. At the Nobel festivities in 1993 Anders Paulsson performed for Nelson Mandela when he received the Nobel Peace Prize and for the Nobel Prize winners of Medicine in 2003. Anders Paulsson seeks to use music to promote international understanding, peace and biosphere stewardship.

He is the co-founder of Coral Guardians www.coralguardians.org, an organisation that combines music and science to raise awareness about the world’s coral reefs and what is needed to safeguard them for future generations.
