Stein-Erik Olsen- Music for Guitar (CD)
Composer Ketil Hvoslef and guitarist Stein-Erik Olsen. Ketil Hvoslef is one of Norway's most respected composers. Productive, with a non-dogmatic approach to art, his music is often characterized as a result of the ability to combine the simple with the complex. Rhythmically clever, with a sense of the unpredictable, the music of Hvoslef hits a certain nerve. Early in his career he was fascinated by the expressional force and timbral versatility of the guitar. Stein-Erik Olsen studied with Hvoslef from 1973 until 1977, and has performed and recorded several of the composer's guitar works.In 2014 guitarist Stein-Erik Olsen released the critically acclaimed album "Havana - Rio - Moscow", inviting Academy of St. Martin in The Fields for a musical collaboration. On his new disc "SEONVEH" he has invited crème de la crème of Norwegian musicians for a salutation to Norwegian composer Ketil Hvoslef.
