Lalle Larsson - A Portrait - Trailer - Seven Deadly Pieces DVD 2008
Lalle Larsson’s Weaveworld
Weaveworld is the brainchild of Swedish keyboard virtuoso Lalle Larsson: An emotive soundscape of dark symphonic classical music, heartfelt romanticism within a framework of heavy metal.
The album features the fretless bass wizardry of Jonas Reingold (Flower Kings, Karmakanic), the guitar-heavy sounds of Stefan Rosquist (The Guitar Diaries), newcomer Mickael “Walle” Wahlgren on drums and respected Dutch guitarist Richard Hallebeek (One Spirit, RHP).
Produced by Reingold Weaveworld offers a startingly original, high octane union of adventurous compositions and hard hitting production values.
Lalle Larsson has recorded and/or performed with Karmakanic, Electrocution 250, Ominox, Richard Hallebeek Project and TimeLine.
As a solo artist, Lalle has made his mark with the groundbreaking DVD Seven Deadly Pieces – “A concert for chamber orchestra and electric guitars”, and is now continuing the journey with his groundbreaking new band Weaveworld.
Outside of Sweden Lalle is better known as Lale Larson. He has appeared on over 20 CDs alongside people like Gary Willis, Virgil Donati, Shawn Lane, Dave Weckl, Marco Minnemann, Randy Brecker, Sebastiaan Cornelissen to mention but a few.

Yngwie Malmsteen will release a new album called "High Impact" on December 8 (one day earlier internationally). The set is described as "a mind-boggling, high-paced instrumental compilation record" featuring a "surprise" bonus track — Yngwie's never-before-released interpretation of the MICHAEL JACKSON mega-hit classic "Beat It", which contains Malmsteen's own magical touch and Tim Ripper Owens on Vocals...
it is great to be a little part of this world wide music comunion. We have to do so much for our profession let us transfer the melodies of prog, jazz and rock to the young people. I try this by my own kids. With good music I think it must be a chance to do that.
Cheers Horst, hope to meet You sometimes more, maybe in Germany
Lalle, dina värmande ord kunde inte komma mer lägligt än en dag som denna. Det känns hedersamt och ärofyllt att få cred i från någon som dig som är en sådan duktig musiker. Respekt!!! Ja Scott Henderson och hans Tribal Tech är några av husgudarna, har sett Tribal Tech live 2 ggr samt Scotts bluesband live 3 ggr. Nåt av det bättre jag sett, bortsett från Joe Zawinul, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Stevie Wonder...Povel är ju en hjälte han med.....Ett geni var han.... Så du har plattsläpp på gång...det där får vi kolla upp... Anna hälsar och tackar hon med för creden. Denna EP är min första egna prodd faktiskt så det var en kul erfarenhet att ansvara för detta samt klippning och klistring....och hela kittet..... Alltid nice att lära sig nåt nytt..... Du får ha en skön vecka och lycka till med plattsläppet och allt därtill... Du får hojta till om du ska ner och lira i Götet.....
You just reminded me that I need to get those 2 CD's since they only had a few at CalProg.
I still haven't had a chance to watch your Seven Deadly Pieces DVD. Now that my son's marching band stuff has ended, I'll have more time.
I've been busy beta testing the new Garritan World Instruments library plus and update to the Jazz and Big Band libraries. We are trying to get both libraries out before the NAMM show in January.
Hello Lalle, thanks for the add!Well Goran told me about you too how amazing musician you are and I can hear that....just great playing!!! All the best to you and regards from cold Norway :0) I'm playing here now.... oh yes It's really cold! Have a nice evening! Cheers!
Hello Lalle, thanks for adding me! I let Alan know that you said hi and he returns the greeting. Take good care and hopefully we'll see you again in the not-too-distant future. Your music is wonderful.
Argh - fy faaaaaaan vad Weaveworld är braaaaaaa! Jag får nästan krupp när jag lyssnar. Skivan damp ner i brevlådan häromdagen och jag har redan lyssnat ett antal vändor, men fler lär det bli. Det nedstämda Dance of the Dead-riffet i G är galet mäktigt. Den här produktionen ska du vara RIKTIGT stolt över, Lalle!
