Trondheim Jazz Orchestra & Espen Berg – MAETRIX, is finally out on double vinyl and digital platforms. Listen on your favorite streaming service here! The first reviews are in, and quite favorable too: “World-class on so many levels […] A work for eternity” and a top rating (6/6) by Nettavisen (NO). “Berg’s multilayered suite navigates its complexity without fuss, made approachable by warm melodies and sumptuous harmonies” writes AllAboutJazz, and Jazzwise declares that it’s “Well written, well executed, and melodically beyond reproach”.
I’ll write more in detail about this work and the production shortly. There is so much to tell about the music, the ideas and the process.
