All three members bring with them long-confirmed and lauded histories as innovators in jazz: Berglund and Öström via the Esbjörn Svensson Trio and their own projects (Tonbruket and Magnus Öström Group respectively); Wesseltoft via his New Conception of Jazz and other projects.

As the title implies, Last Spring is a revisiting of the joys of springtime. It is not an exulting, whirling awakening, but a sustained, minimalistic meditation, oriented strongly towards the details, the variance of the melodies and the breadth and beauty of the sound. It is based on the most perfect interaction possible: soft piano melts into the pizzicato melodies that Henning Kraggerud entices out of his 1744 Guarneri violin, his Harald Lund viola and his unique six-stringed viola Concorda.

Henrik Schwarz & Bugge Wesseltoft – Duo II (2022)

Wesseltoft Schwarz return with a new selection of tracks, DUOII, demonstrating that while neither acclaimed jazz composer and keyboardist Bugge Wesseltoft nor electronics maestro and producer Henrik Schwarz could be described as predictable, as a duo they are absolutely mercurial. Their natural affinity, and symbiotic musical relationship, seems to provide both with equal amounts of inquisitive, experimental and creative energy, and all without sacrificing their accessibility.

Acoustic, electric, electronic… Bugge Wesseltof takes his piano in every possible direction. And although he made his name combining jazz and electro, the Norwegian musician and founder of the Jazzland label regularly goes back to basics. It is the case here with Everybody Loves Angels in which, alone with his Steinway, he reinterprets widely different artists such as Johann Sebastian Bach, the Beatles, Paul Simon, Jimi Hendrix, Cat Stevens, Bob Dylan, the Rolling Stones and Bruno Mars! Recorded on Lofoten in a wood cathedral, this album is viscerally inspired by nature. As always with Wesseltoft, silence plays a key role in improvisations. Everything is therefore set for pure beauty to ooze from every note played. Carefully weighed, cherished and delivered with rare gentleness. A truly moving album.

Scandinavian pop singer Bertine Zetlitz is a well-known artist in Europe who makes catchy disco-influenced dance-pop with a slightly dark, ironic edge. Involved in music from a young age, Zetlitz began writing music just prior to her teens and ultimately studied classical music at college. After graduating, she began pursuing a career in pop music and eventually released her debut album, Morbid Late Night Show, in 1998. Beautiful So Far followed in 2000, featuring production by famed Cardigans producer Tore Johansson. Since that time Zetlitz has released a handful of albums, including Rollerskating in 2004, My Italian Greyhound in 2006, and Electric Feet in 2012. In 2015, Zetlitz released her seventh, studio album, Tikamp, which balanced her love of both electro and acoustic pop. Included on the album was the single “Sett At Vi Sier Det Sånn,” which featured the Dum Dum Boys’ Prepple Houmb.
