Saxophone

I have studied jazz and Swedish folk music with the soprano saxophone as my main instrument. During the years i have played in different constellations:

Don-qui 5

Hyperactive, acoustic impro-rock quintet based in Gothenburg.

"Don-Qui Five stretches the limits of improvisational music into new territory. The music has its roots in jazz and progressiv rock but is at the same time closely related to free improvisation and world music. With the deep seriousness and the hyperactive playfulness of a child - the hyperenergetic quintet kicks a hole in the modern jazz scene.
Don-Qui Five is the band that grabs a hold of you and that doesn't let go untill you fall in to extacy and for a short while forgets that there is a tomorrow."

  • Adrian Åsling Sellius – alto saxophone
  • Henrik Büller – baritone saxophone
  • Lea-Marie Sittler – tenor saxophone
  • Jonas Nilsson – double bass

The quartet was founded in autumn 2018. The music is inspired by psalms and the lyrics are basically about uncomfortable feelings. Petterson is responsible for both the compositions and the humorous lyrics in this project. I joined the project during the first years and the recording of the first record Grabowski.
