about

Jazzland Recordings is proud to present Maria Kannegaard trio "Live at Dokkhuset", recorded on May 9th 2020 at the Trondheim Jazzfestival.

"Synergy" is a word often applied to musical groups of all kinds, but rarely is it more applicable than to the Maria Kannegaard trio. From the opening improvisation, "Dokking", the concept that three individuals - and three distinctive and highly talented individuals, no less - can operate as a single organism is firmly cemented, and all the listener need do is listen - no need for analysis, theories or any form of recalibration: the music brings you into its world, and it is warm and welcoming.

Three quarters of this recording are made up of performances of tracks from the award-winning "Sand i en vik" - "Min Ingen", "Bortimot" and "Dere" - and each is familiar, yet changed. A touch more swing here, a dash of abstraction there; a hint more urgency and drive, or a newfound minimalism and meditative reflection; evolution, growth, change.

Anyone familiar with Maria's work, and the trio's work in particular, is already aware that perfect balance is the order or the day: neither excessive nor lacking, the music emerges exactly as it needs to be: silences are as perfectly measured as the moments where the playing reaches a crescendo of near-critical mass. Throughout, Maria's playing remains expressive, poignant, graceful and wise, while Ole Morten Vågan's bass playing creates statements and counterstatements that harmoniously resonate with it. Thomas Strønen's drumming becomes a living demonstration of the possibilities that lie within a drumkit, seamlessly moving between expressive textures, driving rhythms, controlled chaos, and governed by a clarity of artistic purpose.

No note is wasted, no silence squandered: somehow, the art of perfect moderation creates more than we could ever hope for.
