Christer Boustedt (21 March 1939 in Bromma – 4 September 1986 in Alfta, Ovanåker Municipality) was a Swedish musician and actor.[1]
He was primarily a jazz musician playing the saxophone, and contributed film music to many Swedish films.
He was considered to be one of Sweden's most renowned jazz musicians of his time,[2] and teamed with several of the most famous musicians in the genre,[3][4] in Sweden and internationally. As an alto saxophone player [5] he was much influenced by Charlie Parker and worked in the bebop tradition. This was especially signified on one of his most noticed albums: Blues, Ballads and Bebop (1985).
