The play with proximity and distance, relaxation and intensification, surrealism and truth, sounds, and moods characterizes "Slow Snow." The album tells of the calm and contemplation before the storm, which can, however, culminate ecstatically in the next moment. A warm lyricism develops deep from the soul of the pieces. With "Slow Snow," Brunborg has achieved an impressively soulful ACT debut that also showcases him as a great pianist.
Tore Brunborg
No other country produces more prominent jazz musicians per
capita worldwide than Norway.
Jan Garbarek is the guiding star, but it was primarily the
second generation born in the 1960s that propelled "Nordic Jazz" to
global recognition: Nils Petter Molvær, Bugge Wesseltoft, Geir Lysne, Eivind
Aarset, and saxophonist Tore Brunborg.
Born in 1960, Brunborg hails from Trondheim, the jazz hub of
Norway, and he completed his highly acclaimed education at the conservatory
there. Internationally, Brunborg is better known as a sideman. Since 1982, he
has been a part of the quintet led by Arild Andersen and Jon Christensen.
ACT fans may recognize him as a member of the Geir Lysne
Listening Ensemble and, most recently, from Manu Katché's band. In his own
quartet, Brunborg has collaborated with Bugge Wesseltoft and Anders Jormin. His
current band comprises exquisite companions from the vanguard of Norwegian
jazz, notably the guitar eccentric Eivind Aarset.
