Norwegian Jazz 101c: JazzNorway In A Nutshell 2011
by John Kelman
2008 | 2009 | 2010 | 2011 It may be true, at least most of the time, that familiarity breeds, if not exactly contempt, then certainly complacency; but that simply doesn't apply if subject is Norway--and, in particular, its disproportionately large and vibrant music scene. Suffering from an epidemic that most folks would ...
Nils Petter Molvaer: Colors, Noises and Moods
by Adriana Carcu
Trumpeter/composer Nils Petter Molvær is one of the main exponents of Nordic Jazz--a geographic ramification that has acquired, especially during the last decade, the status of an independent genre. He has created his own style by combining traditional instrumental elements with electronic sound processing: a fusion characterized by pregnant rhythmical patterns and a meditative mood.

Food: Quiet Inlet
by John Kelman
A reduction in personnel rarely results in a broader musical expanse, but that's just what happened to Food, since trumpeter Arve Henriksen and bassist Mats Eilertsen departed in 2004. Molecular Gastronomy (Rune Grammofon, 2008)--Food's first duo recording, though the use of guests fleshed the group out to a trio--was Food's most accessible album to date, without ...

Food: Molecular Gastronomy
by John Kelman
Losing a key member of a quartet can be challenging; losing two can be disastrous. There's no doubt that the departure of bassist Mats Eilertsen and trumpeter Arve Henrkisen from Anglo/Norwegian improvising collective, Food, has mandated significant change since its final effort as a quartet, Last Supper (Rune Grammofon, 2004). Based on their performance at Punkt ...

Food: Last Supper
by John Kelman
On the basis of its title, Last Supper may be the final recording of the Anglo/ Norwegian group Food.
