Description
Putte Wickman (10 September 1924 – 14 February 2006) was one of the world's leading jazz clarinetists.
He was born Hans Olof Wickman in Falun, and grew up in Borlänge, Sweden, where his parents hoped he would become a lawyer. He nagged them to allow him to go to high school in Stockholm. When he arrived in the capital he still did not know what jazz was, and said in an interview many years later he was probably the only 15 year-old who did not. Since he did not have access to a piano in Stockholm, he was given a clarinet by his mother as a Christmas present - a life-changing event, as it turned out, as by then he had started to hang out with "the worst elements in the class - those with jazz records".
