 On ‘Time to Live’, virtuoso saxophonist and composer Marius Neset once again proves why he stands among the most compelling voices in contemporary jazz.
 His energy, breathtaking technique and fearless musical imagination have long drawn world class musicians from across genres to collaborate with him.
 All the music on this album is composed and arranged by Neset and commissioned for the Bergen Big Band, bringing his creative force into full focus. Performed together with longtime collaborator Anton Eger on drums, the album captures the astonishing breadth of Neset’s musical world: powerful, intricate and continually expanding.
