With \"Towards Language\" trumpeter Arve Henriksen is back with his trusted long time musical partners Jan Bang and Erik Honoré. Arve first collaborated with the pair on the much loved and highly praised \"Chiaroscuro\" (2004), Arve´s second album, and later on \"Cartography\" (ECM 2008) and \"Places Of Worship\" (2013).

Composed by Arve Henriksen, Eivind Aarset and Jan Bang, the work celebrates the longstanding seafaring relationship between Hull and Scandinavia. It was originally the musical companion to a sound walk that took place in April, May and June 2017. Those who took part could listen to the music on headphones while crossing the Humber Bridge. Initially intended for April only, the arrangement proved so popular it ended up with selling out three months, a total of 15.000 tickets. Whether it will be repeated in the future remains to be seen, but at least the evocative music can now be experienced on this release. Only minor adjustments have been done to justify the transition from sound walk to album. Other than Henriksen, Aarset and Bang, the work includes important contributions from Hull sound artist Jez Riley French, providing field recordings from the bridge itself: the river below, the noise of engines, the creaking of steel wires, wheels against asphalt and the song of the reeds in the wind. Opera North´s choir and orchestra provides the necessary musical space for the soloists, and two actors and a child are reading from translated poems by Norwegian poet Nils Christian Moe-Repstad. This is a beautiful addition to Arve Henriksen´s large and fast growing discography, and sits well with his very popular Jan Bang contributions \"Chiaroscuro\" (2004) and \"Places Of Worship\" (2013). \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rune Grammofon","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":50497800929611,"sku":"1042762","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"LP","offer_id":50497801191755,"sku":"1042761","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/b54eeef8-d14e-406c-b8d5-6993eb92a1f7_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727733071"},{"product_id":"the-timeless-nowhere","title":"The Timeless Nowhere","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn a world where being loud seems to be the only ticket for attention, Arve Henriksen has somewhat quietly and without much ado established himself as an important, major player on the European jazz scene. In his 20 years with Rune Grammofon we´re counting 11 solo albums (including one for ECM) and 12 albums with Supersilent (including two for Smalltown Supersound), in addition to four albums with Food as well as numerous collaborations, far too many to mention here. During these years he has also performed quite extensively in Europe, in later years being more choosy, often preferring more unique venues and locations. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConsisting of unreleased material from around ten years back and up until 2019, “The Timeless Nowhere” is not a compilation in the traditional sense, but can still be seen as a career overview including many facets of his work, at the same time portraying an artist on an unstoppable quest for discovery through exploration. Indeed, these are also four individual albums that could easily have justified separate releases, but at this stage in Arve´s artistic journey it also made perfect sense to assemble them as a box set. The common denominator is about inspiration drawn from composers, collaborators, new discoveries and more specifically; spontaneous interaction with other musicians without other purposes than the music itself. No talk, no demands, no intentions, no explaining; just music in a timeless nowhere. “Captured Under Mountainsides” points to the wild landscape scenery of the area where Arve grew up in the western part of Norway; overwhelming and often strikingly beautiful, but also isolated and with a sense of melancholy. “Acousmograph” is Arve on his own, inspired by compositions and musicians, more experimental in nature and partly based on sketch recordings in odd locations. “Cryosphere” is a co-production with long time collaborator Jan Bang re-modelling material from a series of evolving concert performances. “Towards Language – Live at Punkt” could be seen as a departure from Arve´s usual approach, but at the same time it´s not. This is not a static run through – Arve would never allow that – but rather the kind of re-imagining process that is such a vital part of his music making.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rune Grammofon","offers":[{"title":"LP","offer_id":50498598633803,"sku":"1076724","price":69.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/5d9e2187-5e1b-43a2-b03b-c49add7b9e79_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727750535"}],"url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/de\/collections\/arve-henriksen.oembed","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
