While You Wait

With their strong feeling for melody, harmony and dramaturgy, pianist Benjamin Nørholm Jacobsen, bassist Martin Brunbjerg Rasmussen and drummer Lasse Jacobsen create a cinematic sound - music that can at times be melancholic or enchantingly beautiful, and which is full of twists and turns. For their ACT debut, the trio has expanded its line-up for the first time to include young Norwegian trumpeter Oscar Andreas Haug. Like Little North, he is also clearly blessed with the kind of musicality and presence which not only builds on Norway's unique jazz trumpet tradition, but also carries it into the future. His airy, vocal tone may have echoes of the greats such as Nils Petter Molvaer or Arve Henriksen, but at the same time there is something new and without precedent. It is also impressive to hear how closely and dynamically Haug's playing connects with the rest of the band, how his nuanced melodic lines go beyond normal semitones, to open up the world of microtones. 'While You Wait' features four extraordinarily talented young musicians whose hearts, minds and considerable skills are dedicated entirely to the purpose of some superb musical storytelling.
