ECM Podcast #8 - Tord Gustavsen

In this eight episode, we catch up with Norwegian pianist and composer Tord Gustavsen, whose newest trio record, “Opening”, was released on 8 March. On the album, Tord is joined by his longtime collaborator Jarle Vespestad on drums and new addition Steinar Raknes on bass.
Tord talks about what happens when you’re able to channel spontaneous inspiration into your music, the new addition to the trio on bass, how songs just come to him in the spur of the moment, and much more.
'Opening' is available here: ECM.lnk.to/OpeningID

If I were to play jazz, I would play THE jazz of Tord.
