Terje Isungset (born May 4, 1964 Hol, Norway) is a Norwegian musician (primarily as a percussionist) and composer. From his background in jazz and traditional Scandinavian music, he has designed musical instruments from non-traditional materials including ice.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Terje Isungset Drummer, Composer - Directory )〕 == Career == Isungset was raised in Geilo where he played traditional dance music with his father (accordion) during his high school days. Moving to Bergen in 1984 led him to be a popular member of a number Bergen Groups, «Ictus» and «Tordenskjolds soldater» 1984-85, «Growl» and «Gruv» 1984-88, «Saksbehandlerne» and «Night and Day» 1985-86, «Salsa Pati» 1985-87, «Supply» 1985-88, in addition to periods within the Big Band «Emanon» from 1986, and recording debut ''Amalgamation'' (1985) with Kenneth Sivertsen.〔 Isungset is after more than two decades on the Jazz scenes, one of Europe's most accomplished and innovative percussionists. With more than 25 years experience in jazz and Scandinavian traditional music he raises these narrow formes of music far beyond their traditional boundaries, becoming more like a crossover between a sound artist and a shaman. When crafting his own instruments from Norwegian natural elements such as arctic birch, granite, slate, sheep bells and even ice, he is highly recommended to those sensible to the poetry and simplicity of sounds.〔 His work is highly acclaimed in the press, often described as innovative, visual, energetic, and different from any previously known concepts. His love for ice music was raised in 1999 when the commission of the winterfestival at Lillehammer asked him to compose and play in a frozen waterfall. Isungset has also been commissioned to compose music for Jazz Festivals, Dance Performances, Theatre, Film, etc., with 41 commissioned concerts.〔 He has released 10 solo albums and is now doing most of his work internationally. Solo concerts, with his band or in collaboration with other artists. In 2006 he started the Ice Music Festival at Geilo, Norway together with Pål Knutsson Medhus, and is the founding manager of the record label All Ice Records. His most recent project is the Glassmusic〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Glassmusic Homepage )〕 together with Arve Henriksen. They released an album named ''World of Glass'' in late 2014. The recordings were largely made in front of a live audience in Tallinn. All the instruments were made from glass by students from the Estonian Academy of Arts.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Madli-Liis Parts' video of World of Glass / Tallinn 2011 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Terje Isungset」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
