Boahjenásti - The North Star
The Geir Lysne Listening Ensemble's Boahjenásti charts bold new territory for Nordic jazz. Released in 2006 on the forward-thinking ACT label, the album blends big band sophistication with contemporary improvisation and folk elements rooted in Sámi and Scandinavian traditions. Extended pieces like 'Old/New House' and the 'Nor Id Suite' unfold with chamber music finesse and genuine innovation. This is jazz that sounds of a specific place and people—essential for those seeking music that crosses boundaries with grace.
