Rapid Light is the first quartet in Lauritz´s own name, formed in the winter of 2023.
The quartet recorded this album in February 2024 in Studio Paradiso, Oslo, Norway - Together with the great sound engineer Christian Engfelt.
Rapid Light is a result of a need to create a raw, powerful and open musical landscape where the musicians can thrive and explore together. The tunes are inspired by my love for strong melodies in orchestral film music and the raw energy and creativity in American and European free jazz. I have put together a band with some of the most inspiring and interesting musicians I know and I believe that together we make up a powerful quartet, which with the help of melodious compositions, great rhythmic drive, and a sincere urge to explore, conjures up a raw and energetic primal force.
