Concert.
In 2008 the guitarist and composer Kim Myhr won the jazz scholarship at Molde Jazz Festival, receiving at the same time a commision to create a work for the Trondheim Jazz Orchestra. The music, with its strong focus on soundscapes, textures, and collective musical solutions, surprised many at its premiere in Molde Cathedral. Erling Wicklund from NRK P2 called the work "poignant (...) totaly subversive". The newspaper Vårt Land settled for a "carnival of sounds".
The band numbers thirteen in total, eleven from Norway and two from Australia, all top-class improvisers and musicians.
Kim Myhr, Sidsel Endresen, Christian Wallumrød, Kari Rønnekleiv, Clare Cooper (AU), Michael Duch, Jim Denley (AU), Eivind Lønning, Espen Reinertsen, Klaus Holm, Martin Taxt, Tor Haugerud, Ingar Zach.
