Pintura Pintura is the second album by the original trio 1982. Their eponymous debut LP, released by NORCD in 2008, was one of our absolute favourites that year. On their new album, Pintura, they lift their interaction and experimentation to a new level. 1982 must be designated as a supergroup within the genre of modern, improvised chamber music. The group\u2019s instrumentation is unusual. As far as we know there is no other ensemble playing improvised music using the combination of harmonium, drums and Hardanger fiddle. This gives 1982 a distinctive sound, but in a purely musical sense, too, the group follows its own path. \u00d8yvind Skarb\u00f8 found the inspiration for the name of the album Pintura when he visited the Joan Mir\u00f3 museum in Barcelona. \u201cWhen you see the picture with the same name, the first thing that grabs your attention is a rough, monochromatic figure, which must have been painted with a broad brush. Then, when you get closer, you notice that the background, in contrast, is very detailed and nuanced. I don\u2019t know if this can function as a description of our music, but I did think it was significant.\u201d The album was recorded at Grieg Hall studio in Bergen with technician Davide Bertolini.<\/p>\n

Fiddler Nils \u00d8kland has a background as a folk musician, and is renowned internationally for his innovative playing style. His solo albums on the ECM and Rune Grammofon labels have received glowing reviews. \u00d8kland was a member of the Christian Wallumr\u00f8d Ensemble for several years. Sigbj\u00f8rn Apeland plays church organ and harmonium, and holds Norway\u2019s only doctorate in ethnomusicology. He is known for operating at the point where folk music, church music and improvisational music intersect. In 2010 he released his first solo album with solo harmonium improvisations, Glossolalia (HUBROCD2503). While studying organ he became involved in learning from and playing free jazz with the legendary British drummer John Stevens, and his list of recording credits includes albums with Sigrid Moldestad, folk singers \u00c5sne Valland Nordli, Berit Opheim Versto and Agnes Buen Garn\u00e5s, electronica innovator Alog, and noise duo Golden Serenades. Sigbj\u00f8rn Apeland and Nils \u00d8kland have also collaborated as a duo for decades, and this past spring they released a critically acclaimed record on ECM inspired by Norwegian violinist Ole Bull and his home at Lys\u00f8en. Drummer \u00d8yvind Skarb\u00f8 has studied with Terje Isungset and has undertaken study tours to Nigeria and Cuba. He plays with BMX, Kresten Osgood, Per J\u00f8rgensen and the Icelandic guitarist Hilmar Jensson, in addition to working with a solo project under the name of DIE, Allroundhandwerker! Skarb\u00f8 has operated the concert club \u00d8yvind Jazzforum in Bergen since 2006.<\/p>\n
