This trio with two great masters of free-improvisation - Swedish drummer
Raymond Strid and Swiss, Gothenburg-based double bass player Nina de Heney, was
first put together for Nørstebø's exam concert at the Academy of Music in
Gothenburg on May 2011. Nørstebø played before with Strid and de Heney in
different formats but the three never played together before as a trio, but
Nørstebø tells that the feeling of having a common ground came fast. The trio
played occasionally since that formative exam and reconvened in 2014 for a
six-date European tour.
The debut double-album of this trio confirms the vision of Nørstebø. It feature
two whole concert sets from the 2014 tour, the first one from the last day in
Oslo and the second, recorded four days before, from Vienna. Each of these
concerts evolves in a different way, but on both concerts the trio moves
constantly in an immediate, organic flow that alternates between segments of
building tension and its release, with a fascinating sense of drama. The highly
creative, explorative language of these like-minded, adventurous improvisers,
their determined search for new sonic possibilities, as well as the profound
trust and understanding how to push forward any idea at any given moment, is
simply fantastic.
The Oslo concert features five intense and urgent improvisations. The trio
excels in transforming instantly fragments of sound, even almost silent,
microtonal ones, into a rich, nuanced mini-dramas. Still, the trio never
attaches itself to any sonic event, just letting the energy flow while enabling
each musician to follow his impulses. The Vienna concert present two extended
pieces, more reserved in their spirit, affected by the reverb on the room, with
more opportunities for lengthy solos by all three. The dynamics of these
improvisations stress the the total freedom that each musician has, and their
different approaches to interaction, suggesting contrasting colors and and even
rebellion within the almost telepathic interplay, all with a subdued intensity
and great sensitivity to detail. This set, like the one in Oslo concludes with
an intense, energetic coda.
