DIGIPACK EDITION

Hannes Bennich is one of the most interesting new voices on the Scandinavian jazz scene. After getting his bachelor degree at Malmö Music Academy he quickly established himself as a saxophonist with a unique sound and technical freedom, and a composer with a penchant for dramatic themes full of rhythmical whimsy.

When Losing A Dream To Reality is Hannes Bennich’s debut album with music inspired by dreams. The record also features Stockholm-based pianist/composer Britta Virves and bassist Tomas Sjödell as well as Danish drummer Emil Norman. Special guest vocalist Helen Salim also joins the lineup for one track.

The music represents the anxiety, beauty, hope and disappointment that a dream can give. As soon as a dream is fulfilled you can no longer shape it. The dream is now reality and out of your control. It’s terrifying and beautiful at the same time.
