Adam Baldych With Helge Lien Trio

Per Oddvar Johansen has played a huge part in Norwegian music over many years and has worked extensively with such ground-breaking figures as Helge Lien, Christian Wallumrød and Petter Wettre. He brings his own imaginative drive to everything he does and his debut album as a leader Let‘s Dance on Edition Records shines a spotlight on a musician who has deserved the attention for a long time. Let s Dance is in-demand Norwegian drummer Per Oddvar Johansen s most mature musical statement yet.

There is an explosion of energy when the eminent Italian pianist Enrico Piernunzi and Danish bassist Thomas Fonnesbæk go on stage. That was what the audiences at the sold-out performances at Gustav’s Bistro had the opportunity to experience on the 14th and 15th of July in 2017, in the midst of Copenhagen’s Jazz Festival. Enrico Pieranunzi and Thomas Fonnesbæk flourish in each other’s company, challenging and playing with each other in a rare combination of technique and personality.
