 Nils Landgren marks his 70th birthday with ‘Love of My Life’, an album that reflects not only the scale of his achievement, but also the astonishingly wide range of roles his life in music has embraced.
 As one of the most successful European jazz musicians of the past few decades, Landgren has long been more than a trombonist or singer: he is a connector, a mentor, a bridge-builder.
 Recorded with close friends and the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra under the opulent arrangements of Vince Mendoza, the album spans from Landgren’s own tender compositions to reimagined works by Cat Stevens, Leonard Bernstein, Herbie Hancock, and others - yet it remains unmistakably Landgren: open, warm and full of humanity.
 “The most important thing in music for me is: no pigeonholing. It’s always better to explore together a bit, to try to do some new things,” he says. That spirit of curiosity and connection shines through every note.
 ‘Love of My Life’ is both a milestone and a mirror: the sound of an artist who, after a lifetime of making music with love, continues to share that love with the world.
