Dupultkonsert v/ Yggdrasil (FO) og maður:glotti (FO) – HAVNAR JAZZFELAG & TUTL 50 ÁR

FO

Yggdrasil er eitt norðurlendskt ensemble, ið hevur heimstað í Føroyum. Hon varð stovnað í 1981 og hevur nærum altíð fevnt um tónleikarar úr øðrum londum. Yggdrasil hevur, frá byrjan av, havt eitt serstakt hugtak. Flestu kompositiónir eru gjørdar í samstarvi við aðrar listagreinar ella í summum førum við náttúruna. Tónleikarar, sum hava verið partur av bólkinum, antin á langtíðarstøði ella sum luttakarar í ávísari verkætlan, hava ymiskar tónleikaligar bakgrundir, serliga í jazzi, men eisini í etniskum, fólkatónleiki, rock- og klassiskum tónleiki. Meðan verkini draga hugskot ella tema úr tjóðskaparligum tilfari, so er improvisatión alt frá fríum til klassiskum stíli altíð partur av spølinum.

Gjøgnum árini hava nógvir tónleikarar og listafólk verið uppií verkætlanum hjá Yggdrasil, sum fevna um myndlist, skaldskap, ballett, opera, konsertir í grottum; og alneyðugt fyri Yggdrasil-hugtakið er, at persónligheitin hjá hvørjum einstøkum limi í bólkinum verður hoyrd ella sædd. Hetta ger ljóðið hjá Yggdrasil sanniliga serstakt.

Kristian Blak er klaverleikari, stovnari og høvuðstónaskald í bólkinum. Hann hevur skrivað fleiri stórverk í svituformi til Yggdrasil, flestu av hesum eru útgivin á Tutl. Afturat sær hevur hann –

Yggdrasil is a Nordic ensemble based in the Faroe Islands. It was founded in 1981 and has almost always included musicians from other countries. Yggdrasil has, from the beginning, had a special concept. Most compositions are made in collaboration with other art forms or in some cases with nature. Musicians who have been part of the group, either on a long-term basis or as participants in a specific project, have different musical backgrounds, especially in jazz, but also in ethnic, folk, rock and classical music. While the works draw ideas or themes from ethnic material, improvisation ranging from free to classical style is always part of the game.

Over the years, many musicians and artists have been involved in Yggdrasil’s projects, which include visual arts, poetry, ballet, opera, concerts in caves; and essential to the Yggdrasil concept is that the personality of each member of the group is heard or seen. This makes Yggdrasil’s sound truly unique.

Kristian Blak is the pianist, founder and main composer of the band. He has written several major works in suite form for Yggdrasil, most of which are published on Tutl. He is accompanied by –

Kári Sverrisson (vocals, guitar), Angelika Hansen (violin), Heðin Ziska Davidsen (guitar), Mikael Blak (bass) and Per Ingvald Højgaard Petersen (drums).

The concerts on 28 and 29 November will feature Kári Sverrisson as singer and saxophonist Tore Brunborg from Norway. Tore was in Yggdrasil in the 1990s and participated in both recordings Drangar –
