7045 (URverk 5) – Ulf Risnes

Ketil Bjørnstad gives us light and darkness in new beautiful piano work. Ketil Bjørnstad returns to the core—alone with the grand piano. Ketil Bjørnstad presents piano music for the twilight hour on the album “Evening Song – Aftensang”. The project began when Bjørnstad was contacted by organist and conductor Svein Rustad, who wanted him to compose “Nighttime songs” for him—based on several poems from the collection “Båt på fjorden” (Boat on the fjord) (Aschehoug 2021).
