ABOUT
Lars Jakob Rudjord is a Norwegian pianist and composer, based on the windswept Lista peninsula on the Southwest coast of Norway. As one of very few Norwegian artists on the globally growing Modern Classical scene pioneered by acts like Nils Frahm, Olafur Arnalds and Max Richter, Rudjord mixes his acoustic, classical-inspired piano melodies with synths, strings, beats and electronics, inviting the audience into his very own sound world.
Overblown (UK): "Lars Jakob Rudjord creates music full of such grace and beauty that it can only be described as briming with culture and poise"
Nordic Music Review (UK): "I particularly love the musical phrasing and expression in Rudjord's piano playing, those tiny subtle accents and pauses that help form patterns in the music."
Drifting, Almost Falling (US): "The feeling for me is of a soundtrack composer in a modern classicalists skin such is the visual feeling of the material ... you will be pressing start all over again."
The Vinyl Anachronist (US): "Amazing sonics and intriguing music ... this is my pick for the best thing I've heard this year"
Positive Feedback (US): "Indiepiano is delicate and secretive and, ultimately, unforgettable"
