A plate of classical sprinkled with a pinch of Cuban Jazz

Hi Quadophile, I really enjoyed the music thanks. It was a great interpretation into the Salsa rhythm and Spanish style and and the orchestra were of a high standard. Unfortunately I don't understand German but would have liked to have understood what was said at the end of the Blue Danube. Thanks again for downloading an interesting musical interlude.

Glad you liked it : It sure was refreshing indeed and thought I'd share it here with everyone.

... but would have liked to have understood what was said at the end of the Blue Danube.

In short, Sverre Indris Joner tried to preserve what he calls a Wiener limp – and combine it with Cha-cha-cha. Taking liberties with classic rhythms is his "thing", and he tries to respect both the original œuvre and the genre he "imports" it into. He also gives praise to Kringkastingsorkesteret.

Oh, and it's not German... it's Norwegian.

Thanks for the translation Urmas, sorry I got his nationality wrong. Once again thanks for the help. Can you give me any information where I can obtain CD's of his music.

 

[Urmas]

You will have to search "with" his bands... for example:

Tango for 3:

La Descarga:

Hovedøen Social Club:
http://www.musiconline.no/shop/displayArtist.asp?id=27475

His home page: http://www.indris.net/

(There is contact info on the bottom of that page... why not email him and ask for a complete discography?)

Very neat.

Tip.

Goes really well with a glass of Mulled Wine.

Thanks Urmas for the links I will investigate and see if any of his works are available in the UK, if not buy from Norway. Once again thanks for your help.
