T056602642The forthcoming 2014 spring tour heralds the release of a new recording by the Tord Gustavsen Ensemble on the prestigious ECM label. Norwegian pianist and composer Gustavsen describes this latest release as ?being the completion of a double circle of trilogies.? the first albums are in the classic trio format of piano-bass-drums, followed later by recordings for extended ensemble and quartet format. This latest recording concludes his second trilogy, and has been created in close creative co-operation with ECM's legendary producer Manfred Eicher.Performer Tord Gustavsen (piano).

T0241820598Pianist Tord Gustavsen has released three critically acclaimed albums on ECM Records with his trio: Changing Places (2003), The Ground (2005), and Being There (2007). The music shows traces of inspiration from sources as diverse as Scandinavian folk music, Caribbean music, early blues, gospel and hymns, and Impressionism - but all transformed and integrated into a highly original universe. Now, Tord launches the quartet version of his ensemble. The quartet is a natural prolongation of the trio work, but also adds new colours and dimensions to Tord’s music through the sensibilities of some of the finest and most intriguing players on the vibrant and eclectic Scandinavian jazz scene.Performer Tord Gustavsen (piano).
