Gösta Theselius

Gösta Theselius (June 9, 1922 in Stockholm – January 24, 1976 in Stockholm) was a Swedish arranger, composer, film scorer, pianist, and saxophonist. His brother was musician Hans Theselius.

Theselius worked in the 1940s with a number of European big bands, including those of Thore Jederby, Hakan von Eichwald, Sam Samson, Lulle Elboj, and Thore Ehrling.[1] He played jazz into the 1950s, both as a saxophonist and a pianist (on the latter instrument with Benny Bailey, Arne Domnerus, James Moody, and Charlie Parker), and composed copiously for film in the 1950s and 1960s.

gollark: NEVER!
gollark: You could argue that the reason my phones have problems is that I just don't treat them very well, but really, it's a utility device for my benefit, and I'm not going to go around trying to treat it with reverence, avoid taking it to places it might be damaged, and never using it, to try and protect it.
gollark: The circuitry, I think some of the frame, and any high-temperature parts, can't be printed.
gollark: You can't 3D print an *entire* 3D printer yet.
gollark: And my 4D printer broke.
