『Lonely Shadows』はその正確で繊細なタッチが、光の反射と影のように感情を揺さぶる。個々の曲には、録音後に連想されたタイトルが付けられていった。悲しみと喪失感を想起するアルバム・タイトル曲からスタートし、驚くほど滑らかに音を共鳴させていく。不協和音を置き去るように、静かなタッチでメロディを並べたかと思うと、スペースを素早く軽快に埋めていく。そして、一つの運動体のようにタッチが連なっていくラストの“All What Remains”へと至る。『Lonely Shadows』は、ジャズとクラシック、即興の直観と作曲の規律の間でワニアが紡いだ物語である。

It is no exaggeration to say: Norwegian tenor saxophonist Marius Neset plays in his own league. In addition, he is one of the most fascinating and versatile composers in jazz and far beyond - which, among other things, currently takes him as far as London's Royal Albert Hall. Downbeat states, "Marius Neset is not the future, but the presence of European jazz." The album "Happy" features Neset with a new, top-class quintet. The album is divided into two parts: In the first half, playful, intricate, energetic songs dominate. And in the second part, Neset & Band takes the listeners into a calmer suite. What all pieces have in common: You can hear the musicians' pure joy playing on every note.
