The last couple of weeks

The last couple of weeks have been quite busy, first in Molde with Torstein Ekspress, before going to Germany with Trondheim Jazz Orchestra. On monday I went to Scotland with swedish drummer Erik Nylander to take part in an exchange project between Edinburgh Jazz Festival and Oslo Jazz Festival. In Edinburgh we spent a couple of days rehearsing with saxophonist Leah Gough Cooper and bassplayer Calum Gourlay, and yesterday we played a concert at Bristo Place. Both Leah and I had composed new music for the project and it was a lot of fun! Next year they will hopefully come to Oslo and we will play a gig at the jazz festival there.

Right now I am relaxing in Stockholm before going to Finland tomorrow with Trondheim Jazz Orchestra and Marius Neset. Looking forward to it alot!
