Throughout the years, the band has been working hard on their music as well as performing live, which has resulted in strong musical interplay. The melody is the main focus in NilasaliN’s compositions and the amalgamate of trombone and guitar as the main voices, results in a unique soundscape. The music presented is a blend of both highly composed material and freer musical segments. The ensemble takes advantage of the possibilities that the broad lineup has to offer by using various orchestrations, as well as dividing the band into trio, duo, quartet, quintet and solo format. NilasaliN has a sound that embraces a wide range of genres, with elements of Norwegian folk music, rock, pop to free improvisation. Nevertheless, the band is primarily working within the modern, Scandinavian jazz idiom. All band members contribute with compositions which offers diversity and all song titles are dedicated either to acquaintances, family or different geographical places the band members somehow are related to. The album was recorded and mixed by David Aleksander Sjølie in Urban Sound Studios and Kvadraturen Studio, as well as mastered by Morgan Nicolaysen at Propeller Mastering, August-November 2017, Oslo, Norway.

The audience is presented for a selection of the late Northern Norway jazz guitarist Thorgeir Stubøs (1943-1986) compositions from the 1970s and 80s. On note, these compositions, originally instrumental, have received newly written lyrics in northern Norwegian and Sami by Kjersti Stubø, and are presented in new and exciting arrangements by Kjersti Stubø Kvintett. Many of the compositions are so far unknown to the public and were also unknown to the musicians - until they appeared in a secluded box in the basement of Kjersti and Håvard's childhood home a few years ago. We have approached the material with respect, and it has been an exciting task to interpret and process the material and give it the final finish with lyrics and arrangements. We look forward to presenting these to the jazz audience! VINYL will come later.

  • Discourses of Decay and Purity in a Globalised Jazz World
    1 Chapter Seven Cold Commodities: Discourses of Decay and Purity in a Globalised Jazz World Haftor Medbøe Since gaining prominence in public consciousness as a distinct genre in early 20th Century USA, jazz has become a music of global reach (Atkins, 2003). Coinciding with emerging mass dissemination technologies of the period, jazz spread throughout Europe and beyond via gramophone recordings, radio broadcasts and the Hollywood film industry. America’s involvement in the two World Wars, and the subsequent $13 billion Marshall Plan to rebuild Europe as a unified, and US friendly, trading zone further reinforced the proliferation of the new genre (McGregor, 2016; Paterson et al., 2013). The imposition of US trade and cultural products posed formidable challenges to the European identities, rooted as they were in 18th-Century national romanticism. Commercialised cultural representations of the ‘American dream’ captured the imaginations of Europe’s youth and represented a welcome antidote to post-war austerity. This chapter seeks to problematise the historiography and contemporary representations of jazz in the Nordic region, with particular focus on the production and reception of jazz from Norway. Accepted histories of jazz in Europe point to a period of adulatory imitation of American masters, leading to one of cultural awakening in which jazz was reimagined through a localised lens, and given a ‘national voice’. Evidence of this process of acculturation and reimagining is arguably nowhere more evident than in the canon of what has come to be received as the Nordic tone. In the early 1970s, a group of Norwegian musicians, including saxophonist Jan Garbarek (b.1947), guitarist Terje Rypdal (b.1947), bassist Arild Andersen (b.1945), drummer Jon Christensen (b.1943) and others, abstracted more literal jazz inflected reinterpretations of Scandinavian folk songs by Nordic forebears including pianist Jan Johansson (1931-1968), saxophonist Lars Gullin (1928-1976) bassist Georg Riedel (b.1934) (McEachrane 2014, pp.

    Mountain Sound: Norway’s Jazz Identity By © 2019 Ashley Hirt M.A., University of Idaho, 2011 B.A., Pittsburg State University, 2009 Submitted to the graduate degree program in Musicology and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, Musicology. __________________________ Chair: Dr. Roberta Freund Schwartz __________________________ Dr. Bryan Haaheim __________________________ Dr. Paul Laird __________________________ Dr. Sherrie Tucker __________________________ Dr. Ketty Wong-Cruz The dissertation committee for Ashley Hirt certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: _____________________________ Chair: Date approved: ii Abstract Jazz musicians in Norway have cultivated a distinctive sound, driven by timbral markers and visual album aesthetics that are associated with the cold mountain valleys and fjords of their home country. This jazz dialect was developed in the decade following the Nazi occupation of Norway, when Norwegians utilized jazz as a subtle tool of resistance to Nazi cultural policies. This dialect was further enriched through the Scandinavian residencies of African American free jazz pioneers Don Cherry, Ornette Coleman, and George Russell, who tutored Norwegian saxophonist Jan Garbarek. Garbarek is credited with codifying the “Nordic sound” in the 1960s and ‘70s through his improvisations on numerous albums released on the ECM label. Throughout this document I will define, describe, and contextualize this sound concept. Today, the Nordic sound is embraced by Norwegian musicians and cultural institutions alike, and has come to form a significant component of modern Norwegian artistic identity. This document explores these dynamics and how they all contribute to a Norwegian jazz scene that continues to grow and flourish, expressing this jazz identity in a world marked by increasing globalization.
