Trondheim Jazz Orchestra & Ole Morten Vågan - Plastic Wave

“Plastic Wave” comes as the sequel to 2018´s celebrated “Happy Endlings”, where Ole Morten Vågan, one of the most sought-after bass players in Norway, collaborated with the unpredictable and creative Trondheim Jazz Orchestra, comprised of a sort of «who´s who» in Norwegian jazz.  Where “Happy Endlings” took the listener on a 72-minute-long ride on the edge of their seat through a myriad of innovation, chock, and surprises, «Plastic Wave» sees TJO & Vågan take their mischievous end time antics from the previous album to the next phase, in some sorts a musical excavation of the next evolutionary step - and the sequel is no less than 12 minutes longer. Titles such as Food Chain Reaction and Critical Mass Distraction are given extra momentum by Flu Hartberg ́s cover art, again a trusty companion for the music. Having been recorded half way through 2020, the music on «Plastic Wave» plays well against this unprecedented backdrop.

Trygve Seim - Sangam (2004)

9/10

Trygve Seim's wind ensemble is establishing itself as a brilliant orchestra whose inventiveness knows no bounds. Here it celebrates the standstill, the slowness, the miniature, the small variation. It lets the beauty emerge completely carefree. And that with the holy seriousness of those who know. Seim, blessed with the utmost saxophone finesse, develops into a storyteller, a dream inventor.

Trygve Seim: tenor and soprano saxophone; Håvard Lund: clarinet, bass clarinet; Nils Jansen: bass saxophone, contrabass clarinet; Arve Henriksen: trumpet; Tone Reichelt: French horn; Lars Andreas Haug: tuba; Frode Haltli: accordion; Morten Hannisdal: cello; Per Oddvar Johansen: drums; Øyvind Brække: trombone (4); Helge Sunde: trombone (4); String Ensemble with Christian Eggen conducting (4).

Out of Silence

New FriEnsemblet release!!

Mathilde Grooss Viddal/FriEnsemblet ft. Naïssam Jalal - Out of Silence

Giraffa Records, GIR 1706

Out of Silence, FriEnsemblets 5th album. 

FriEnsemblet features the great French/Syrian flute player and composer Naïssam Jalal. The music is mainly composed and arranged by Jalal and Viddal and consists of a mix of Arabic and Norwegian, contemporary jazz music.

Mathilde Grooss Viddal and Naïssam Jalal met for the first time in Paris in 2015, after Viddal heard Naïssam on the Norwegian Radioshow «Jungeltelegrafen». She immediately took contact. Second time they met was on stage at the National Jazzscene of Norway. This record consists of the three concerts they have had together with Friensemblet; at National Jazzscene, Bø Jazzklubb and Kampenjazz in Norway during 2015-2016.

The cover art is made by the French/Syrian painter Ibrahim Jalal, and designed by Chris Mentzen.

FriEnsemblet was established in 2004 and consists of a generous group of musicians with very different individual expressions. Together they constitute a large ensemble with a significant impact. The music is mainly composed and arranged by Viddal, while each of the members’ improvisational and sonic expressions gives the band it’s unique and distinctive sound.

Previous releases are Holding Balance 2006, Come Closer 2009, Undergroove 2012 and El Aaiun - Across the Border 2014.

Ole Morten Vågan skal heim og besøke mamma og pappa i Brønnøysund, og tar med alle sine beste venner på turen. Eller – Trondheim Jazzorkester skal på en liten Europaturné, og starter likegodt turnéen i Brønnøysund. Uansett – en fabelaktig konsert med – så vidt jeg forsto – musikk skrevet av Ole Morten Vågan, i det utrolig stemningsfulle Forsamlingslokalet som startet sin historie som avholdslosje en gang i forrige årtusen. Og det var liksom ikke hverdagsutgaven av jazzorkesteret som stilte heller, her var det snakk om et skikkelig toppa lag med de beste av de beste over hele linja.
