Album Description

Movements of Air is the highly anticipated fifth album from Daniel Herskedal’s acclaimed trio, featuring Eyolf Dale on piano and Helge Andreas Norbakken on drums and percussion. Marking his tenth remarkable release with Edition Records, this album seamlessly bridges his foundational trio debut, Slow Eastbound Train, with previous masterpieces like The Roc and Voyage. Over the past decade, Daniel Herskedal has consistently pushed the boundaries of the tuba, crafting music that is both profoundly introspective and expansively cinematic. At its core, Movements of Air delves into themes of hope, the pursuit of a better future, and the very essence of musical creation. With masterful performances from all members and intricate compositions, Herskedal navigates the delicate balance between good and evil, war and peace. Tracks such as The Olive Branch and Peace River Crossing showcase his ability to create emotionally resonant soundscapes, while pieces like Elements of Harmony and Harmonic Allusions highlight his innovative approach to harmony and texture. This album stands as a testament to Herskedal’s extraordinary talent, transcending the traditional limits of his instrument to deliver music that is both emotionally compelling and artistically groundbreaking.
