Name of the Wind is Erlends second album as a band leader and composer, releases April 19 th 2024 on Dugnad rec, and presents modern jazz and various traditional music in an electro-acoustic ensemble.

“From moment to moment, from tune to tune. It is the balance that leaves you with the impression of something magnificent.” Christopher Monsen, Klassekampen

“The balance between the whimsical, naïve and yet sophisticated and demanding is both entertaining and stimulating.” Olav Opsvik, Jazznytt

 

“ Olderskog Albertsen brings us into an exciting and exceptional universe, – an extraordinay personal at that.” Tor Hammerø

 

“A piece that reconciles the different souls of Albertsen … it succeeds perfectly in its intentions”  Piergiuseppe Lippolis, Musicmap

 

“The expression is original and like nothing I have ever heard before.” 

Niels Overgård, Jazznyt.com
