IN THE COUNTRY | SOLVEIG SLETTAHJELL | BUGGE WESSELTOF | KNUT REIERSRUD — Norwegian Woods (2014) Serie : Jazz at Berlin Philharmonic — II | FLAC (tracks+.cue), lossless

It was another one of those evenings of magical moments that the "Jazz at Berlin Philharmonic" series curated by Siggi Loch is so sure to generate. Knut Reiersrud, Solveig Slettahjell, Bugge Wesseltoft, Morten Qvenild and his trio In The Country demonstrate, as if under a burning glass, the reasons for the almost uncanny success of Norwegian jazz: a return to its own roots, i.e. Norwegian folk music and classical music.
