One of the most spectacular examples of international synergy between diverse styles, a quality for which the Festival is committed. Saxophonist Maciej Obara's quartet is an invitation to a special project that will also include his quartet friend Ole Morten Vågan - one of Europe's most respected and sought-after bassists Kit Downes - a phenomenal pianist and improviser who also plays the organ - and Veslemøy Narvesen - a leading percussionist of the young generation in Norway.
