After releasing his forth record for the Norwegian
avant garde record company Rune Grammofon,
Arve joined forces with musician Jan Bang for a european live tour in the fall of
2008. Now there are dates available for 2009 also. Arve
is one of the most breathtaking new voices in European jazz these
days, known for his very uniqe and personal voice on the trumpet. During the
years, he has worked with many musicians familiar to ECM listeners including Jon Balke (with whose Magnetic
North Orchestra he has played extensively), Anders Jormin, Edward Vesala, Jon Christensen, Marilyn
Mazur, Marilyn Crispell, Nils Petter Molvaer, Misha Alperin, Arkady
Shilkloper, Marc Ducret, Ketil
Bjørnstad, Tore
Brunborg, the Cikada String Quartet and more. He has
played in a very broad span of contexts, ranging from work with koto player
Satsuki Odamura to the rock band Motorpsycho via numerous free improvising
groups with Ernst Reisiger, Sten Sandell, Iver Kleive, Peter
Friis-Nilsen et cetera.
