In The Country - Sunset Sunrise (2013)

Pianist Morten Qvenild started the In The Country trio in 2003, with Roger Arntzen on the bass and Pal Hausken on the drums two fellow former students from the Oslo music academy. The trio played reams of concerts in over 20 countries over the last 13 years and has been awarded the Best Norwegian Young Jazz Artists in the mid 00´s. After four internationally renowned Norwegian albums, his ACT debut 'Sunset Sunrise' now proves that he has achieved a masterful reconciliation between tradition and experiment, between individuality and communal listening experience, between jazz and pop, in a way that has never been heard before.
