Oslojazz Talent: Gard Hvammen Trio

Exploratory and playful

Gard Hvammen Trio is recognised by an exploratory attitude towards music and a playful spontaneity in their interactions. Their broad specter of references shines through each musical choice, and through their interpretations of each other’s and other compositions they challenge the traditional roles of a piano trio. Each musical situation is treated as an opportunity to “stretch the elastic” - both towards the beautiful and fragile, and the brutal and extreme.
