Bergen Open

The first album, Bergen Open, is a double-CD where disc 1 is a 40-minute raw recording from the sound check in the studio. Spontaneous, free, wild and without a thought of that it was recorded, this represents the playful interaction. Here, there is little emphasis on the long forms: Ideas arise and disappear at a rapid pace. Disc 2 contains compositions by the Ølnes, but here too the solo parts, intros, endings and arrangement of forms are improvised.
