About me

For more than 50 years, I have been part of the music scene of Norway as a musician, producer and scholar. I enjoy playing saxophones, bagpipes, flutes, laptops, keyboards of various kinds, as well as an unknown number of other instruments.

I started my working career as a television producer in the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation; after that I took up an academic career, eventually as a professor of (ethno)musicology, first at the University of Oslo; later at what is now called the University of Southeast Norway.

During the last few years, I have worked with the Taragot label, and recorded, produced and published many of the now almost 50 albums of the Taragot catalogue.

Besides my own solo albums of traditional Norwegian music, you can also hear me playing laptop and keyboards in various free-improv and contemporary jazz groups.
