Sound Clips

Blåmannvariasjoner: This is a short encore Knut Erik made many years ago. It's a variation piece on the Norwegian folk song "Blåmann Blåmann bukken min." It's a sad song about a goat... Each of the variations are for the most part directly influed by a certain composer. This is a live recording made the 5th of March 2005 in Steinkjer, Norway.

Young Sound

Young Sound is a organisation and concert concept from Selbu founded by Marthe Belsvik, Mai Britt Wagnild and Knut Erik Jensen. The purpose is to gather young artists and music/art students originally from Selbu to make concerts together. Each 28th of December they arrange a major concert in the local church. This has become a tradition appreaciated by hundreds of local people for many years.

Kilombo

Kilombo is the latest project where Knut Erik participated as an accordionist. The music is influed by various areas of folk music, especially tango, french musette and kletzmer, elements of jazz and classical music. Kilombo managed to create their own genre spanning from quiet, sensual music to burlesque outbursts.

You can listen to 3 songs from their album "Bordello Music" on this site. Afterwards you probably want to buy the entire album. Do that here!
Exerpts from Bordello music:
