I over 20 år har Bugge Wesseltofts klassiske julealbum «It’s snowing on my piano» vært en garantist for julestemning. I år er den anerkjente pianisten tilbake med ny og eksklusiv julekonsert i Peer Gynt-salen i Grieghallen, torsdag 15. desember.

Med godt og vel 150 000 solgte eksemplarer, er juleklassikeren «It’s snowing on my piano» en gigantisk suksess i norsk jazz- og musikkhistorie. Vær forberedt på vakre og neddempede versjoner av våre kjæreste julesanger, kontemplativt, men samtidig full av detaljer for den våkne lytter. Perfekt medisin for å blåsa bort akutt julestress

Om det fins en norsk musiker med definisjonsmakt langt utover jazzen, så må det være Bugge Wesseltoft. I tillegg til å være en jazzvirtuos på tangentinstrument og å drifte plateselskapet Jazzland Recordings, er han en pioner i å modernisere den elektroniske jazzmusikken. Samtidig har han funnet tid til å produsere Jan Eggum og turnere med Jan Garbarek, bare for å nevne en brøkdel av engasjementene hans.

Bugge Wesseltoft forteller selv om bakgrunnen for platen:
     «Snowing on my piano» ble laget ut fra et ønske om ro og fred i Jula, og en pause fra stress, gavehysteri og det å måtte være så voldsomt lykkelig hele tiden. Som ung jobbet jeg ved et akuttmottak på psykiatrisk sykehus og det var et sjokk for meg å oppdage at Jula også er en høytid for depresjon, ensomhet og vold i hjemmet. Da et tysk plateselskap spurte meg om å lage en solopiano plate med julesanger var jeg sterkt i tvil men valgte til slutt å spille den inn på betingelse av at jeg fikk gjøre det på min egen måte. Det å være glad i hverandre og ha tid til hverandre er det viktigste vi kan drive med i julen.»

For over 20 years, Bugge Wesseltoft's classic Christmas album "It's snowing on my piano" has been a guarantor of the Christmas mood. This year, the renowned pianist is back with a new and exclusive Christmas concert in the Peer Gynt hall in Grieghallen, Thursday 15 December.

With well over 150,000 copies sold, the Christmas classic "It's snowing on my piano" is a gigantic success in Norwegian jazz and music history. Be prepared for beautiful and subdued versions of our favorite Christmas carols, contemplative, but at the same time full of details for the alert listener. Perfect medicine to blow away acute Christmas stress!

If there is a Norwegian musician with defining power far beyond jazz, then it must be Bugge Wesseltoft. In addition to being a jazz virtuoso on keyboards and running the record label Jazzland Recordings, he is a pioneer in modernizing electronic jazz music. At the same time, he has found time to produce Jan Eggum and tour with Jan Garbarek, just to mention a fraction of his engagements.

Bugge Wesseltoft himself tells about the background for the record:
"Snowing on my piano" was created based on a desire for peace and quiet at Christmas, and a break from stress, gift hysteria and having to be so violently happy all the time. When I was young I worked in an emergency department in a psychiatric hospital and it was a shock to me to discover that Christmas is also a holiday for depression, loneliness and domestic violence. When a German record company asked me to make a solo piano record of Christmas carols, I had strong doubts, but in the end chose to record it on the condition that I could do it my own way. Loving each other and having time for each other is the most important thing we can do at Christmas."
