Liv Andrea Hauge Trio

In the organizer's words:

20:00 | Concert | 🎤 Concert hall

In this lively new jazz trio, pianist and composer Liv Andrea Hauge works together with Georgia Wartel Collins on bass and August Glännestrand on drums. Their music embodies an innovative approach within the classical piano trio format. Hauge's compositions focus on groove, simple but melodious sound sequences and the spontaneous interplay of the musicians. Each piece offers ample room for improvisation, with the music unfolding dynamically in response to the energy that arises between performers and audience.

The trio draws from the rich tapestry of modern piano jazz and is heavily influenced by luminaries such as the Paul Bley Trio, Maria Kannegaard Trio, Moskus and Kit Downs. Since their debut in the summer of 2022, the trio has embarked on an exciting journey, releasing two albums, touring extensively throughout Norway and Europe and receiving prestigious awards including selection for Jazzahead 2024 and the prestigious Zenith Prize of 2024.

Their debut album "Live from St. Hanshaugen", released in October 2022, was praised by Norwegian critics, including Audun Vinger, who wrote that it sounds "brilliant" with "melodic, robust compositions" (Jazznytt, 07.10.2022).

Their second release, "Ville Blomster", was released in February 2024 on the prestigious Norwegian label Hubro/Grapp and was widely praised.
