gahrton

Daniel Gahrton (1991) is a swedish saxophone player based in Stockholm. As a saxophone player he is particularly interested in improvisating, approaching improvisation from very different angles. He has an open and experimental approach to musical style and is influenced by a wide range of music, such as jazz, free jazz, free improvised music and contemporary classical music. In his playing and composing, he explores and combines musical structures at different levels, seeking means of expression in melodic, rythmic and harmonic structures as well as in sound texture and acoustics.  He also enjoys collaborating with performers and artists in other fields, such as contemporary dance and visual art. In composing music he takes great interest in the features of writing for improvisers.
