Tord Gustavsen, the renowned Norwegian pianist, has released ten albums under ECM Records with his ensemble and trio, including Changing Places (2003), The Ground (2005), Being There (2007), Restored, Returned (2009/2010), The Well (2012), Extended Circle (2014), What Was Said (2016), The Other Side (2018), Opening (2022), and Seeing (2024). His music has garnered widespread critical acclaim globally.

While his work blends elements of Scandinavian folk music, gospel, Caribbean rhythms, and cool jazz, Tord’s ensembles create a unique world of lyrical beauty and subtle funkiness. His way of merging the history of jazz with reflective “Nordic” moods results in an intriguing voice in today’s music scene.
