Tribute to Arne Domnerus (1924 – 2008):

“Having worked with some great musicians through the years there is still nobody that had such an enormous emotional
impact on me as Arne. The secret was in his sound and in his way of nuancing each tone. As a jazz musician he reached a
whole nation of people. People who wouldn’t normally listen to jazz included. He was loved by the audiences. Anyone with an interest in jazz should take a listen to “The Midnight Sun Will Never Set”, recorded in the 50s with Quincy Jones leading the Swedish Radio Big Band – a classic.
Arne was one of the world’s finest interpreters of the Great American Songbook; but not only that, he was also one of the
pioneers in playing music of Swedish origin, popular songs and folk music, in a jazz context.
Arne Domnerus truly was one of the great ones and he will be missed by thousands of fans.” (Jan Lundgren)
