The concept:
Having always been moved by the American and British Jazz & Pop music, I thought it would be neat to combine music from composers in these genres who have inspired me throughout the years, with my own style and background as a Norwegian composer. Thus the idea was born to create a CD which combines my orchestrations of great tunes from American and British masters with my own compositions written in the same style. I hope you will all enjoy listening to this music as much as we enjoyed creating it!

This project was made possible with support from the following sponsors:

Tono (Ascap), Norway
Norwegian Fund for Performing Artists (FFUK), Norway

I am grateful to everyone involved in this production.  Your beautiful and positive attitude from conception to completion has contributed to a fine product and a great experience. Without you all, this production would never have been made possible. Honorable mention goes to:

Joey Berkley, without all these commissioned pieces, this production would never have seen the light of day.

Kevin Wood, thanks for a very capturing photo my friend.

Gloria Rosa-Wendelboe (my wonderful wife) for numerous grant applications, logistical support as well as the beautiful lyrics to “Seasons Wander”,  and my great kids Susanna & Daniel for always being so patient with me!

Steve Jankowski for the use of your marvelous studio and all the countless hours of knowledge and insights that you have put into this production. Both Deb Lyons and your warm hospitality have made this a very happy experience for me.
