LARS HORNTVETH Kaleidoscopic (2009 UK CD album - The follow-up to the critically acclaimed debut album, 'Pooka', by Jaga Jazzist leader Lars Horntveth, 'Kaleidoscopic' consists of one 37 minute long composition and was recorded with 41 members of the Latvian National Orchestra [lead by the Norwegian conductor Terje Mikkelsen], with Lars Horntveth himself playing piano, horns, and clarinets. Lars' dogma in creating this album was to write the music chronologically into an open, endlessscore, similar to a diary. Intending for the music to flow from idea to idea, Lars wanted the score to grow and develop along with his state of mind.)
