-Click to listen to excerpt-

"Audrey Chen and Henrik Munkeby Nørstebø’s album is quite something. Henrik Nørstebø’s meticulously realised trombone scapes combine elegantly with Audrey Chen’s
extraordinary array of virtuosic formant manipulations. Always inventive, often deeply emotive, this is a beautiful duo."
— Chris Abrahams (The Necks)

Henrik Munkeby Nørstebø - Melting into foreground

SOFA 2015 (cd/vinyl/digital)

Solo - trombone, electronics, half clarinet

-Click to listen to excerpt-

"On both pieces, Nørstebø keeps his compositional structures clear through a balanced use of filled and empty space. The silences he allows between passages of sound tend to act as boundaries separating sections into disjunctive events defined by dramatic changes in timbre as well as in organization and dynamics. And despite his deliberate distorting and dismantling of the trombone’s conventional voice, he allows a fundamental warmth to pervade both performances."
