Fascinating Combination of Chick & Trondheim Jazz Orchestra Conquers Norway
Not only is Chick Corea’s enlivening piano performance with the Trondheim Jazz Orchestra at the Molde Festival 2000 an electrifying moment in time, the showcase of musical prowess has also become one of the great events in the history of the festival. Erlend Skomsvoll’s arrangements for Chick and big band bring out new colours in Corea’s compositions (Crystal Silence, Armando’s Rhumba, Spain, Return to Forever and more) throughout the concert, which is intimately with such crystal clear sound that it feels like you are actually sitting right in the front row.
Like no big band record you’ve ever heard.
“...Live in Molde is a must-have, a big band “Treatise on Instrumentation.”

“Anyone at this year’s IAJE performance by Chick Corea and the Trondheim Jazz Orchestra of Norway left with a sense of exhilaration. Live in Molde continues in the same vein, presenting some of the most creative and challenging big band arrangements in recent memory..."
