ALE MÖLLER'S WORLD HERITAGE ORCHESTRA
A leading figure in the Swedish folk revival, Ale Möller began his career
as a trumpeter and guitarist primarily interested in jazz. But when he heard Greek
musician Christos Mitrencis at a gig in Sweden he became fascinated by the bouzouki.
He later adapted the instrument to play Swedish fiddle music, and it's this hybridising
approach to different cultures and styles that Möller has made his own.
The Orchestra
features a fluid roster of musicians who mix musical influences as diverse as
Greek, Cuban, African, jazz and Indian. This gig was recorded in the
spectacular setting of the newly refurbished Old Fruitmarket, and features a guest
appearance from legendary Shetland fiddler, Aly Bain. |  |
