wo of Norway’s most
T
distinct jazz trios share the
stage for the first time.
The first part of the evening's perfor-
mance is by Sigurd Hole Trio (Sigurd
Hole, double bass; Håkon Aase, violin;
Jarle Vespestad, drums). They relea-
sed their debut album Encounters in
2018, to outstanding national and in-
ternational reviews. Their music may
be described as an open, innovative
meeting between elements from Nor-
wegian, Indian, Japanese, and Arabic
traditional music – solidly rooted in a
modern, Scandinavian jazz sound.
BT Fordel: 187
Hole and Vespestad are also mem-
bers of the Tord Gustavsen Trio, the
evening's second act. Gustavsen,
Supported by
the pianist, is one of Norway's most
Grieg Foundation renowned jazz musicians. The trio's
musical expression is sensitive, me-
lodious, and intense and their tunes
influenced by traditions like Scandi-
navian folk music, French impressio-
nism and hymns.

eltic music traditions by a

ensemble.
Celtic Roots Ensemble is a mix of
broadly experienced musicians: Knut
Reiersrud, Aly Bain, Ale Möller, Tuva
Syvertsen, Frasier Fifjeld, and Olle
Linder. These musicians from Nor-
way, Sweden, Scotland, and Shet-
land play various guitars, harmonica,
mandola, trumpet, flutes, harmonium,
bagpipe, harding fiddle, percussion,
and double bass – to name but a few.
The ensemble was put together to
make a recording for the Jazz at
Berlin Philharmonic series.
The result was the live album Jazz
at Berlin Philharmonic VI: Celtic
Supported by
Grieg Foundation Roots, that emphasized the Celtic
music's imprint on European music
and American folk music and blues,
and was highly acclaimed within the
music field.
