Eyolf Dale: Wolf Valley

Concert starts: 17:30 Price single ticket: NOK 350

From all jazz corners of the world, praiseworthy mentions of Eyolf Dale's ambitious project flow Wolf Valley. Now the octet is coming to the Kongsberg Jazz Festival, full of Norway's best jazz musicians.

It came as no surprise to anyone that this band's first record was nominated for Spellemann. Pianist, composer, arranger and bandleader Eyolf Dale pours freely from the most diverse sources of musical inspiration, and the result has been particularly attractive. The music is often melodic, with tight, warm ensemble parts. It is also expressive and rhythmic, dynamic and changing - and never boring! In the band there are a bunch of excellent soloists who all know how to spice up the pot in an extra refined way. On Saturday 8 July, the public will have a unique opportunity to hear this band live, in the Sølvsalen at the Kongsberg Jazz Festival.

Eyolf Dale (piano), Hayden Powell (trumpet), Kristoffer Kompen (trombone), Adrian L. Waade (violin), André Roligheten (sax), Gard Nilssen (drums), Per Zanussi (bass), Rob Waring (vibraphone/percussion )
