POCKET CORNER - Spanish Tour 2015 04 Nov 2015

The Norwegian ensemble Pocket Corner is one of the longest running and most important projects on the Free Jazz scene in its country. Created and directed by the trumpet player Didrik Ingvaldsen in 1986, Pocket Corner has become an institution over the years. Many musicians from the current Norwegian avant garde scene have been part of the ensemble at some point; among them, Paal Nilssen-Love. Inheriting the Free sounds developed by Ornette Colema, they bring elements of Nordic Jazz and free improvisation to their music.

Pocket Corner son:
Didrik Ingvaldsen: Trumpet
Glenn Brun Henriksen: Alto Sax
Vidar K. Schanche: Guitar
Ståle Birkeland: Drums

The tour, organised by Vector Sounds in collaboration with some of the main associations and venues linked to free jazz and improvisation in Spain, will start at the Jazz & Cookin' Festival in Valencia, starting this year, where they will share the stage with other relevant names of the national and international vanguard jazz and free improvisation scenes.
