Yûgen Marius Gjersø, Trumpet • Kaja Fjellberg Pettersen, Cello Sebastian Haugen, Double bass • Jo Berger Myhre, Electric bass Before Marius Gjersø started producing Yûgen , he traveled around Japan, where his encounter with Japanese culture, manners and aesthetics made a big impression. On his return to Norway, these impressions from the east remained very much alive for him, and became a major influence on the album. Nine soulful pieces of electroacoustic improvisation lay a perfect foundation for his exquisite trumpet lines. Combining improvisation with melodic, ambient and minimalistic electronics, he creates a musical space to really embrace. Yûgen is his debut album as a solo artist. TRACKLIST:
