Description: | Andreas Ulvo is a Norwegian jazz-pianist, keyboardist and composer. He holds a master degree in
improvised music and jazz from the Norwegian Academy of Music. His music is an eclectic blend of jazz,
pop, classical and folk music, with always his typical ??free improvisation touch?? on the piano; ??despite
my strong relationship to classical music, as a performer I never had the patience to sit down to learn
to read music properly. Reading music felt too much like a detour from my goal of making music. The
road to improvised music and jazz was a more immediate and natural way for me to go. However when
immersing myself in the standard jazz repertoire, I eventually came to the conclusion that even jazz
isn??t necessarily free. There are a lot of written and unwritten rules you have to follow. For me the real
essence of jazz reveals itself only in the moment you realize that it??s not a genre; jazz is music with an
improvised quality?.
Besides his solo-albums, he has released several albums as Ulvo Ensemble, with Slagr and with his Eple
Trio. He has played live and/or has done studio-recordings with Norwegian artists as Jon Eberson,
Solveig Slettahjell, Jo Berger Myhre, Thom Hell, Mats Eilertsen, Karl Seglem, Mathias Eick, Ellen Andrea
Wang, Froy Aagre and Jonas Sjovaag. For his latest album ??Lost In Space? Andreas Ulvo (grand piano)
has gathered some of his favourite musicians; Giovanna Pessi (baroque harp), Hakon Aase (violin) and
Arve Henriksen (trumpet). - Recorded in Snekkerbua studio, Vallset, 6.-8. January 2020.
