about

ØRE is an homage to every musician’s most important organ: the ear ("øre" in Norwegian translates to "ear" in English). This homage and genre bending album is delivered by a true multi-instrumentalist, presenting his 4th solo album.

Homage to every musician’s most important organ: the ear

“Playing by ear” is a concept that most people are familiar with. There are many musicians who have learned everything they know by ear. The ear can perceive things that can never be notated on paper, and a lot of music can only be learned by ear because it is impossible to write down.

This album consists of a combination of solistic material, "trick"-recordings where Hans Fredrik Jacobsen plays all the instruments, as well as different ensembles. Hans Fredrik explains the process behind the album like this:

"Playing solo is another way of listening. You listen in a more inward way, into yourself. After having worked alone in the studio for a while, it was good to be joined by the others who are included here. Solo playing is exciting, but the most fantastic things happen when you are playing in an ensemble.
Music is a language. Improvising is like conducting a conversation you have never had before. The ear takes you on unfamiliar journeys, and sometimes you can find that you are doing something intuitively without really being able to explain afterwards what actually happened. This is a source of endless fascination."
