Jazz talk Saturday
Each day starts with Jazz talk from the stage, where current festival artists and other festival people are interviewed by Audun Vinger and Filip Roshauw.

Today's guests:
Solveig Slettahjell and Knut Reiersrud – two legends in Norwegian music. We could talk to these two about a lot of strange things, we think, but we can start with Rememberance, the project that they share members with In the Country, and which draws on the poetry of Emily Dickinson and the Brontë sisters.
SEMINAR – Breath: towards a new poetics of solo improvisation. Or: What is it like to play mutters alone? Henriette Eilertsen (who received the musician award last year and is playing three concerts this year) and the legendary suit-clad trumpeter Axel Dörner will both play both with an audience and completely alone during this year's Kongsberg Jazz Festival. A good opportunity to delve into this most intimate of concert formats.
Åge Hoffart and Kristian Ludvik-Bøhmer – They are both central figures in Kongsberg's jazz history, the main theme now is a long series of recordings from the festival's history that are now being released for the first time and that are creating great excitement all over the world. We talk about this ambitious music history project, in collaboration with the well-respected record label Elemental Music. So far, there have been releases with Bill Evans and Art Pepper, and we ask these two gentlemen what on earth we can expect in the years to come.
