1982 with wind sextet The improvisational trio 1982 consists of Nils \u00d8kland, Sigbj\u00f8rn Apeland and \u00d8yvind Skarb\u00f8. The trio has already released three critically acclaimed albums. On their previous album the musicians collaborated with pedal steel legend BJ Cole. This time they have invited wind players Fredrik Ljungkvist (Atomic), Erik Johannessen (Jaga Jazzist), Sofya Dudaeva, Hanne Liland Rekdal, Matthias Wallin and Stian Omen\u00e5s (Stian Omen\u00e5s Klangkammer) to participate in an unusual collaboration. As the title of the trio\u2019s fourth album, A\/B, indicates, it is divided into two parts. The album is built up with the classic LP structure of an A side and a B side, with a long piece, 18:16 minutes, filling the entire A side. This piece clearly stands out as the most distinctive in 1982\u2019s discography up to now. Taking his point of departure in improvisations recorded by the trio, trumpeter and composer Stian Omen\u00e5s has \u201cexpanded on\u201d the idiom and has composed and arranged music for a wind sextet that has been layered on top of the original improvisation. Drummer \u00d8yvind Skarb\u00f8 got the idea for this unusual project together with Tobias and Henrik, the sons of Sigbj\u00f8rn and Nils, respectively, after a concert in Haugesund. Stian Omen\u00e5s was quickly pulled into the project. \u00d8yvind and Stian have been playing together since their early teens, and Omen\u00e5s is a superb improviser and composer as well as a highly educated conductor. \u201cHe was simply the perfect man for the job,\u201d says Skarb\u00f8. \u201cThe fact that we communicate as well as we do has also made the process much easier.\u201d On the B side we once again hear 1982 in the form of a trio, with several new ideas that serve to enlarge the 1982 universe. Sigbj\u00f8rn plays piano on one track, and Nils \u00d8kland sings. \u201cOur goal is to continue to develop things further, and I feel that we\u2019re managing to do just that,\u201d says Skarb\u00f8. The musicians of 1982 are improvisers to their very marrow, and everyone who has seen and heard them in concert knows that they love to surprise their audiences. The recordings of 1982 were made at Grieghallen Studio in Bergen just before the studio was closed down in the summer of 2013. The wind sextet was recorded at Rainbow Studio in Oslo with technician Jan Erik Kongshaug. Recently 1982 has also made a recording, not yet finished, with a fourth person. The group will participate in a live project related to animated film, and will compose a commissioned work for NOTAM (the Norwegian Center for Technology in Music and the Arts). The members of the group have also begun thinking about yet another recording project to be completed for the trio\u2019s 10th anniversary in 2017.<\/p>\n
