Experience Tord Gustavsen Trio live on April 8th

Tord Gustavsen Trio will perform at E-Werk Saal in Erlangen, Germany on April 8, 2027. The trio is known for its lyrical and subtly interactive jazz, often described as a blend of Scandinavian folk music influences with improvisational elements. Their sound emphasizes spaciousness, melodic development, and a distinctive piano trio interplay, frequently incorporating hymn-like qualities and a contemplative atmosphere. The group consists of Tord Gustavsen on piano, Harald Rúnar Andrésson on bass, and Jarle Vespestad on drums. They have released numerous critically acclaimed albums since their formation in 2003 and are recognized within the European jazz scene for their unique approach to improvisation and composition.

E-Werk Saal is a prominent cultural venue located in Erlangen, housed within a former electricity plant ("E-Werk" translates to "electricity plant"). Originally built in 1906-1908, the building was converted into a cultural center in the 1980s.
