Home Page | Newest Releases More music from Norway |
Berit Opheim, Nils Økland and Bjørn Kjellemyr Berit Opheim, Nils Økland and Bjørn Kjellemyr are inspired by a wide variety of classic styles but find common ground in the field of improvisation. Berit Opheim has won the traditional Landskappleiken with her shining vocal. Nils Økland is an extraordinary music who plays fiddle, hardanger fiddle and viola d ’amore. Bjørn Kjellemyr's double bass and his recent fondness of the colascione, a bass lute from the Renaissance, adds the appropriate gravity to this recording, performed live in the Ullensvang church in Norway. There is deep tradition here, but also an untamed avant garde, and together they make BNB a highly recommended CD.
