L'arte della persuasione by Magne Thormodsæter is no ordinary album. It is a musical experiment with an uncertain outcome ... and a small miracle.
35 minutes, 5 acts: a top-class classical ensemble meets experienced jazz musicians. Notes meet spontaneity. Structure meets freedom. And the result?

>> "Modern strings à la Kronos Quartet, cinematic moments, baroque elements, free electro-acoustic jazz, brass creativity ... numerous listening moments and wow effects. Great!" - Jazzthetik

Sometimes composed, sometimes improvised: This music is alive. It changes, transforms, never stays the same. A fusion that dissolves boundaries with the full force of persuasion.

Now to be heard everywhere: L'arte della persuasione

During their China tour, jazz musicians Oddgeir Berg and Per W***y Aaserud were nicknamed Brothers of Melody - a title that later found its way into the official program for the Jazzahead Clubnight in Bremen. In this special performance, they bring their unique sound to a fresh, vibrant rendition of “Dancing Queen.”

+++ NEW ALBUM RELEASE by Oddgeir Berg Trio +++

The island of Rolla is tiny and sparsely populated — a mere 900 people live here. On A Place Called Home, Oddgeir Berg takes us to this, his father's birthplace, for a concept album about the magic of nature, the spaces hidden in memory, and the bonds that family provides.

The music was written with a new trio line-up and during a period of personal turmoil, including a cancer diagnosis for Berg's mother, and the worries which accompanied her treatment. As one would expect, the music feels intimate and pastoral, mostly slower-paced and introspective.

But there are also moments of gentle exploration here as well as a beautiful bass solo by new member Audun Ramo. It is an invitation to a journey — to make any place your home.

+++ ALBUM RELEASE DAY +++

Anger is a destructive force. Especially now, in the news, we can witness its impact every single day. And yet, it is an integral part of the human condition. On his new album for Ozella, Rain Sultanov confronts anger by writing some of the most heavenly music of his career.

Soprano saxophone, organ, cello—this unusual instrumentation is at the heart of these nine floating, deeply moving compositions. As such, Forgiveness is an extension of the palette of the 2018 release Cycle, which focused on the core duo of organ and saxophone.

The lineup, however, as Sultanov stresses, is not what matters. What counts is using music as an instrument to transform our anger—and to offer it, others, and ourselves forgiveness.

[What is your first impression of the full album? And what piece is your favorite?]

+++ RELEASE DAY +++

Magne Thormodsæter's "L'arte della persuasione" brings jazz and classical music together in a captivating 35-minute story told in five acts. This unclassifiable fusion pits a classical ensemble against a jazz group, creating a unique sound that defies expectations. Thormodsæter, a professor at Bergen University, combined composed and improvisational elements, giving musicians cues to act spontaneously. The sessions saw musicians gradually overcome their initial reservations, blending their styles and making the piece their own.

Reflecting on his student days, Thormodsæter recalls debates about the supremacy of jazz or classical music. Now, he sees unity and border-crossing as a logical progression. L'arte della persuasione feels organic, bending the parallel lines of jazz and classical music into a beautiful convergence.
