Friday Night Live! Tord Gustavsen Trio

Norwegian pianist Tord Gustavsen explores new sounds by applying elements of American jazz to the classical, church, and folk music of his youth. The result is an immediately identifiable Norwegian kind of jazz, a descendant of the original with new sources of inspiration that has established Gustavsen as one of Scandinavia’s leading artists.

The trio will preview selections from their soon-to-be-released tenth album which features Gustavsen (piano and electronics), Steinar Raknes (double bass and electronics), and Jarle Vespestad (drums).
