Dag Arnesen Trio foundinspiration in norwegian folk songs and from
great composer Edvard Grieg. And the result? - their highly acclaimed CDs Norwegian song and Norwegian Song 2. By
adding their own signature to these traditional well known – and loved melodies
- they created new life for them in their own way – and in our own time. South China Morning Post,
the largest daily newspaper in Asia, had "Norwegian Song" on their prestigious list of best albums of the year 2007.
The new album was released winter 2008. A new album is due to be released in
2010.
Dag
Arnesen ” Norwegian Song” er inspirert av Edvard Grieg og den norske
folkemusikken.
Trioens tolkninger av
Grieg og norske tradisjonssanger i et moderne jazzuttrykk har gitt disse
folkekjære melodiene nye farger og nye tonebilder.
”Norwegian Song” har
appell utover det tradisjonelle jazzmiljøet og musikken fungerer like
godt i klubber, kirker og kulturhus, som festivaler eller events. Dag
Arnesen ”Norwegian Song”, har turnert for fulle hus både i Norge og
utlandet, deriblant Russland, Kina, Italia og Sverige.
