Eirik Dørsdal
Trumpet
A true local patriot based in Risør, fiercely committed to the local cultural scene, and at the same time one of Norway’s most distinctive jazz trumpeters, both as a performer and a composer.
About the Artist
Eirik has more than 20 years behind him as a trumpeter, and if you’re from Southern Norway it’s hard not to have noticed what he has meant, especially for the local jazz scene.
He’s one of those who simply gets things done, including no fewer than 60 tours organized in Norway and internationally. It’s almost unbelievable that he has time for it all, because he doesn’t just play concerts himself, he also composes and arranges.
And there’s one unshakable principle at the heart of everything he does: quality!

Two very different musicians. One can sing the most beautiful opera arias. The other is a free jazz trumpeter. Can two such different soloists make it work together?
