Jazz talk Thursday
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:
Marius Neset – he plays the saxophone, there is little doubt about that. He is also a composer. At Kongsberg he plays his own songs in a new guise with Mats Eilertsen, Eyolf Dale and Audun Kleive.
Award Winner (Secret) – Is it saxophone? Is it vocals? Is it trombone? Is it JAZZ? In any case, it is a musician at the height of his career, who has won the Kongsberg Jazz Festival's grand musician award.
Henrik Linder from Dirty Loops – Dirty Loops is one of the biggest bands in the huge shred wave that has haunted our world for the last 10-15 years, to our joy and despair. We look forward to talking to bassist Henrik Linder!
Simin Tander – This vibrant German-Afghan vocalist lives in Norway and makes a strong impression with her atmospheric music. Most recently with the Jazzland album The Wind.
