Karl Seglem

Karl Seglem Quartet Karl Seglem, tenor sax, goat horn, poetry/voice Erlend Viken, fiddles, voice Hallvard Gaardløs, bass, voice Kåre Opheim, drums, voice Sound-engineer: Ingar Hunskaar Norway's foremost goat horn player and tenor saxophonist has an impressive drive to constantly explore the relationship between folk music and jazz - and everything around, everything outside. It is difficult to put a label on Karl Seglem. He has created his own sound universe, his own genre so to speak. And music is for him a vital and personal form of expression. Let's call it world heritage folkjazz, since much of the inspiration for the creation process comes from the diverted Norwegian folk music landscapes, - and fjords. The quartet presents music from a long series of his many albums: 43 fysical releases by 2024, where critically acclaimed Mytevegar, Nunatak, Nordic Balm, Ossicles, Som spor, New North are central. Soundscapes where both mountain home, sand dunes, asphalt jungle, undulating forest and life-giving water can be heard. Over-whelmingly extroverted, beautifully energetic, poetic Nordic music.
