En av Norges tyngsta jazzjournalister Terje Mosnes menar att Marius är det viktigaste som hänt norsk jazz sedan Jan Garbarek. NA:s Måns Uggla gav honom högsta betyg när han besökte Hallsberg senast. Marius senaste platta Pinball har fått lysande kritik. Här kommer ett citat från Ystad Jazzfestival skriven av en kritiker ifrån tidskriften DownBeat Maga- zine: ”One of the stronger and more original voices on the saxophone scene, Neset has been refining his work as a potent player and thinker, with intricate polyrhythmic designs for his quintet, which can be both progressive and emotionally majestic.” Marius har komponerat för Oslo Sinfonietta och verket har framförts på operan i Oslo.

  • Marius Neset
    Marius Neset Mit gerade 28 Jahren ist der Saxofonist Marius Neset eine der großen Hoffnungen des europäischen Jazz. „Schier wahnsinnige technische Geläufigkeit“ attestiert ihm die Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung ebenso wie „cinemaskopische Fantasie“, für die Süddeutsche Zeitung führt er sein Instrument „in eine neue Dimension“. Geboren ist Neset 1986 in Os, einer Berggemeinde 180 Kilometer südöstlich von Trondheim, aufgewachsen dann in Bergen an der Küste. Früh zeigte sich seine Musikalität, nach Klavierunterricht fand er mit zwölf zum Saxofon, das sofort Gegenstand seiner unbändigen Energie, seines Ehrgeizes und seiner bedingungslosen Hingabe wurde. So nahm er sich ein Jahr lang jeden Monat eine Tonart vor, in der er ausnahmslos alle Stücke, alle Motive und alle Licks spielte - Grundlage für seine konkurrenzlos rasanten, dialogischen Lagenwechsel, die heute charakteristisch für sein Spiel sind. Bereits mit 17 ging er 2003 ans Rytmisk Musikkonservatorium in Kopenhagen, wo er noch heute lebt. Sieben Jahre studierte er dort, erst machte er den Master mit Auszeichnung, dann zwei Jahre Aufbaustudium als Solist. Ein großes Glück für ihn erwies sich, dass der Multiinstrumentalist Django Bates dort 2005 als musikalischer Direktor anheuerte. Bates wurde mit seiner humorvollen Multistilistik, seiner Offenheit und seiner Technik zum entscheidenden Einfluss. Neset spielte in der von Bates geleiteten Konservatoriums-Bigband stoRMChaser und dessen eigener Band Human Chain , dafür ist der Brite wiederum auf Nesets CD „Golden Xplosion“ zu hören. Mit Kommilitonen, darunter dem Schlagzeuger Anton Eger, der zum Weggefährten wurde, gründete Neset schon 2005 die Band JazzKamikaze , die sofort mehrere Nachwuchspreise bekam und sich mit einem einzigartigen Stilmix von Bebop bis Hip-Hop schnell europaweit einen Namen machte.
