New energy
to Swedish jazz
in the 1970s

During the late 1960s the interest in jazz in Sweden was very low. Many feared it would die out. But thanks to the 1970s fusion music a new interest in jazz grew up with the younger generation. The economic situation also improved by a new and more liberal cultural policy which gave social support to the musicians, the clubs and the record production.

The meeting between folk music and jazz had in the 1960s played an important role, and it continued in the 1970s. The Swedish folk tradition was often a part of the music by such as the musicians around Arne Domnerus, particularly for the pianist and composer Nils Lindberg.


Jazz in the church

Georg Riedel and Bengt Hallberg had a marked interest in choir-singing, a result from interactions with the church and church musicians. "Jazz in the church" became an estimated phenomenon around the country. Popular names in that context was also Svend Asmussen and Putte Wickman who often appeared together in church concerts.

Jazz meets Rock

But the main influences into jazz in the early 1970s came from the rock music. The day after that Jimi Hendrix masterfully closed the Woodstock festival, Miles Davis was in the recording studio to start work on Bitches Brew. It is a curious coincidence, but true logical because that the electric music of Miles had Hendrix's influence hovering over it.

The Woodstock festval as well as Jimi Hendrix and Miles Davis´ new record had an enormously impact on the jazz development in the 1970s. New meetings between rock and improvised music began to be organised around the world. In Sweden gave surch as the legendary music festival at Gärdet in Stockholm in 1970 new energy to both rock and jazz music in Sweden.


   The Festival at Gärdet in Stockholm


A variety of groups was formed in Sweden who were involved in fusion music of various kinds, and the boundaries between music styles began increasingly to blur.

OPPOSITE CORNER from Gothenburg played a music that included folk and art music from countries such as Arabia, Tibet and Ghana and they could go to classic composers like Eric Satie and Bela Bartok to get new starting points. Leader was the saxophonist Gunnar Lindgren and among the members Åke Johansson on piano.

   Opposite Corner


Berndt Egerbladh, Bengt-Arne Wallin, Monica Dominiqe, Janne Schaffer among others mixed up their music with all kinds of moods from jazz, rock, funk and whatever. And on groups such as Arbete och Fritid, Fläsket Brinner, Samla Mammas Manna and Archimedes Badkar, it was impossible to bring any musical label.

One of the best and most long-lived fusion groups was EGBA who mixed their own rock material with folk music elements from mainly Africa and Latin America. The name EGBA associated from the outset to Africa but was later, when the instrumentation became more electronic, the meaning of "Electronic Groove and Beat Academy".

A meeting between Swedish jazz musician and Turkish musicians took place in the group SEVDA. Among the members were Bernt Rosengren, Maffy Falay and Okay Temiz. The latter also led the group ORIENTAL WIND, in which several members of the group Rena Rama also played.


   Bobo Stenson


In RENA RAMA the Indian music played an important role. The group was started by Bobo Stenson, Palle Danielsson, Lennart Åberg and Bengt Berger. All four had important roles in several other groups and contexts.

The American trumpeter Don Cherry had a great importance for the development of jazz fusion in Sweden. He lived periodically in Sweden and often played with Swedish musicians.


   Don Cherry


The free jazz and improvised music developed also in Sweden, even if the style did not get the same position here as in other parts of Europe. A pioneer was the saxophonist Bengt "Frippe" Norström, who already in the early 1960s had chosen a consistent musical direction. Others that moved across the musical borders were Bernt Rosengren, Tommy Koverhult, Eje Thelin, Per-Henric Wallin and Gilbert Holmström.

One of the first and most persistent Swedish groups in free improvised music was ISKRA. First playing quite chaotically, but subsequently became more nuanced.

A more aggressive music was played by LOKOMOTIV KONKRET. They were connected with the 1970s European avantgarde, which combined free improvisation with contemporary written art music.


   Free jazz at Fylkingen, the scene for new and experimental music in Stockholm


Even more traditional forms of jazz had a place on the expanded Swedish jazz scene in the 1970s and 1980s. Swing music had a renaissance by musicians like Lars Erstrand and Ove Lind who addressed their music to both a listening and a dancing audience, mostly made up of middle-aged and older people.


   Stampen, the place for "Happy Jazz"
 in Stockholm



A younger dancing audience was interested in music with a strong jazz connection as well, but it was jazz flavoured with music from Latin America and Caribbean, and with black American soul and funk.

Also bebop and hardbop were living well in the 70s and 80s. Groups such as Communication (with Red Mitchell), Jazz Incorporated (Egil Johansen), CBQ (Christer Boustedt and Bosse Broberg), Fredrik Noren Band - they all played under the motto "bebop is beautiful." Soloists were musicians like Nisse Sandström, Krister Andersson, Bertil Lövgren, Åke Johansson, Lars Sjösten and others.
