Info for Milton På Svenska

This album is an extraordinary example of how music from two continents can merge into a noble work where concepts of cross-continental understanding make sense to everyone on both sides. MILTON IN SWEDISH is a breathtakingly beautiful cross-cultural love child.

Josefine Cronholm
is one of Scandinavia's foremost vocalists, known for her unique musicality and great empathy. She leads a number of her own award-winning orchestras, but is also known from her collaborations with Marilyn Mazur, John Tayler, Django Bates and ARC. Josefine Cronholm is currently working on the album "Near The Pond" with Kirk Knuffke, Thommy Andersson and Kenny Wollesen. If you've seen the DR drama series Forbrydelsen, you'll recognise her voice. She is the one who hums the theme tune.

Anders Banke
is a saxophonist and plays in a large number of bands on the Danish jazz scene. He has appeared on more than 70 releases as a musician, composer and arranger, and he has toured all over the world with an artistic career ranging from improvised jazz with his own trio to stadium concerts with the indie band Bon Iver to Django Bates, Pierre Dørge, Egberto Gismonti and the Danish National Symphony Orchestra.

Fredrik Damsgaard
is known as a groovy bassist who masters both the upright bass and the double bass. Fredrik Damsgaard's great musical ear, characteristic groove and percussive double bass technique make him a perfect playmate. He currently plays with Søs Fenger and Ginne Marker, among others. If you want to hear some of his latest work, check out his latest musical project "MARATHON MONKS", which has quickly gained cult status in the Danish jazz underground scene.

Celso de Almeida
is one of Brazil's great drummers. He has played with leading Brazilian artists such as Gal Costa, Gilberto Gil, Edu Lobo, Leny Andrade, Joao Donato and Raul de Souza. In 2016, he participated in the album "Time Out" with Eliane Elias. The album won a Latin Grammy. He is Rosa Passo's regular drummer and has toured the world with her. Since 2014 he has his own trio with pianist Felipe Silveira and bassist Sidiel Vieira.

Steen Rasmussen
is one of Denmark's most skilful interpreters of Brazilian music with his own unique and sophisticated style. He has played with many of Denmark's leading soloists such as Lis Sorensen, Danseorkestret, Søs Fenger and Marie Carmen Koppel. Since 2007, Steen Rasmussen has been at the helm of Steen Rasmussen Quienteto. The orchestra has released six albums and has toured extensively in Denmark, Spain, Brazil, Ecuador, Columbia, Germany and France. Quite often Steen Rasmussen includes some of Brazil's biggest stars in his projects, such as Joyce Moreno, Paulo Braga and Leo Minax. A very special musical playmate is singer Josefine Cronholm. Steen Rasmussen's orchestra has been nominated for both the DMA-JAZZ and twice for the CARL award. In collaboration with the film company Crosswayfilm, the orchestra released the music documentary 'Cafe Central' in 2019. The film follows the band as they performed four nights at the legendary jazz club Cafe Central in Madrid.
