Karl Bjorå
I Would Have Made It

Om utgivelsen

Karl Bjorå’s Jazzland Recordings debut, «I Would Have Made It», is his third release under his own name, and it displays both his maturity as an artist and composer, yet retains his endlessly playful nature, embracing unlikely combinations of tones and textures, styles and rhythms. His music has always been an interweaving of styles, with varying degrees of perceived and actual complexity, and here on «I Would Have Made It» that unique approach is on full display. As a bandleader, Bjorå is exactly that – he leads the band, but rarely is the central focus, instead offering full space to play to an ensemble made up of some of the finest emergent musical voices in the Norwegian scene. The result is an album where the compositions and collective musicianship are at the forefront, with Bjorå acting as both participant and curator.
