ABOUT THIS ALBUM

‘Cecilie Grundt & Vigleik Storaas’ is the new jazz album of Norwegian saxophonist Cecilie Grundt and the award-winning pianist Vigleik Storaas. The album was recorded at Øra Studio in February and releases 21 October 2022 on Grundt Records, the first release on this new label. The album consists of seven classic jazz songs.

Cecilie Grundt and Vigleik Storaas met at the Music Conservatory in Trondheim in 2015, and have since been collaborating in several projects, above all in Cecilie Grundt Quartet. The band released their
critically acclaimed album ‘Order and Chaos’ in 2020, consisting of eight original compositions. On their new album, this duo goes straight to the heart of the Great American Songbook and jazz standards, the common tongue of the jazz tradition. In their own words: “This album is unlike any other recording that we have done before because it is our first album consisting entirely of classic jazz songs. The album represents something that many people can relate to because it interprets familiar songs. Our main focus was to get the creative energy from spontaneous interplay, and for that reason some of the songs begin with a free-flow improvisation instead of the melody“.
