2025 stock A composed improvisation, or possibly the other way around – this is one way of describing the music played by Mats Gustafsson and the Nu Ensemble, a multinational group of improvisational musicians.
The Nu Ensemble was a loosely structured, irregularly convened radio and concert project built around crossover music and free improvisation, initiated by Gustafsson and Swedish Radio P2 producer Lars-Göran Ulander. “Hidros one” was commissioned by the Swedish Radio and was premiered at the Stockholm Jazz ’97 festival.
