About Hemsedal Jazzfestival
Hemsedal Jazz Festival is a non-commercial and uncompromising festival for Norwegian contemporary jazz with a window to the world. It is, and will continue to be, a small and intimate festival. The festival as music scene and meeting place, is supposed to challenge both the musicians and audience, and focus on meetings between the various artistic expression such as folk music, visual arts and dance. The goal is to develop this annual music event in to a significant stage and recruitment arena for the Norwegian contemporary jazz. Meaning in the sense that the creative environment created by human beings and nature gives so much, that both the musicians and audience leave the festival feeling that they have been given something extra to share with others. In the end this is all about creating honest art.

Among his inspirators you'll find the jazz of Charles Mingus and Miles, electronic outfits like Squarepusher an Aphex Twin, and composers like Django Bates.
