Witt's sound and compositions are lyrical, memorable, and ideal for this setting. Soph is masterful at the drums. All three of these men are at the top of their game. Their dedication is continuously on display and totally inspirational.

Nicolas Meier Group: Silence Talks
Silence Talks is the latest and most eloquent musical statement from guitarist Nicolas Meier and his band. It is the sound of a band that have been playing together for more than three years and where every member brings their own distinct musical voice to the music in an ongoing musical conversation. This dialogue and empathy shines through every note of this, their third, album together as Meier's increasingly confident compositions provide a natural launch point for some dazzling investigations of his own unique eastern-flecked jazz.
Curling Legs
Curling Legs was started by guitarist Knut Vaernes and Morten Halle (sax) in 1992 and has since released more than 100 titles. Curling Legs is also licensor of the Odin jazz label, with 50 titles.
The seventies and the eighties were, for European jazz in general and Norwegian jazz in particular, a period characterized by prosperity and inventiveness. A new Nordic dialect of jazz was developed, with the Norwegian jazz elite as central participants. In recent years, however, a new generation of improvising musicians have appeared on our music scene, with the same will to find their own style.
