Jazz on 3

on BBC Radio 3

Jez Nelson presents a performance by Sister Maj's Blouse, recorded at the 2006 Manchester Jazz Festival. A stellar line-up of Scandinavian jazz musicians pay tribute to the influential Swedish composer and saxophonist Borje Fredriksson , who died in 1968 and is little known outside his own country. Pianist Bobo Stenson , bass player Palle Danielsson and drummer Fredrik Noren were his last rhythm section and, after his death, Bobo was entrusted with his scores. Here they're re-united with a saxophonist, Joakim Milder , whom he greatly inspired.
