Anja Lauvdal — From a Story Now Lost (Smalltown Supersound)

Photo by Anne Valeur

From a Story Now Lost by Anja Lauvdal

Norwegian pianist and composer Anja Lauvdal comes from a jazz background which informs the oblique approach on her debut album From A Story Now Lost. Working with producer Laurel Halo, she creates a series of atmospheric pieces steeped in classical and ambient influences full of bewitching details that counterpoint the naturalism of Lauvdal’s piano. A palimpsest of memory and experience in which fragments emerge and linger briefly to be subsumed as perspectives shift. The image comes to mind of an archaeologist digging through jumbled, partly indecipherable histories, intuiting a connective narrative.

Lauvdal was inspired in part by her rediscovery of pianist and composer Agathe Backer Grøndahl, a friend and contemporary of Edvard Grieg, who has been called Norway’s first impressionist. Interestingly the track “Fantastie for Agathe Backer Grøndahl” is the least overtly pianistic piece here. A slightly off-kilter keyboard motif plays over woozy counterpoint before slowly drowning in a quicksand of hiss and crackle as if to connect the composer to the contemporary dark ambience of Supersilent and Helge Stern. By contrast, the romantic melancholy of “Clara” is a relatively unadorned tribute to Clara Schumann whose talent as an interpreter, improviser and composer has been long overshadowed by her personal history. Elsewhere there are reflections on effects of climate change on the Arctic Circle which are directly affecting Norway. “Sukkertare” references the loss of up to 80% of the sea kelp beds off the country’s west coast. At heart of the track is the submerged swaying of a club beat struggling to breathe in a de-oxygenated miasma. On “Xerxesdrops” cellos and basses augment Lauvdal’s contemplative improvisation set against the distant howl of Arctic winds that fail to diminish the warmth of the piano. “A Swim” wobbles and swooshes like an early Pole track charting the rhythm of breath and blood as laps through time. 

Halo’s sympathetic production highlights Lauvdal’s improvisational skill and conceptual sophistication as she creates evocative connections between past erasures and present obliviousness, absorbing flickers of light and refracting them as sparkling mosaics of sound. From A Story Now Lost seeks not to provide a clear narrative but to demonstrate the ways that curiosity, acknowledgement and constant questioning keeps history alive and points the way forward.

Anja Lauvdal and Joakim Heibø - All My Clothes - another piano/drums duo LP (Smalltown Supersound)

This is the first release in a series of albums on Smalltown Supersound with Norwegian freeform pianist Anja Lauvdal. On All My Clothes Lauvdal teamed up with her friend, the reclusive and now retired (?) Norwegian drummer Joakim Heibø for a session in the great tradition of piano and drums at Flerbruket Studios at Hemnes outside of Oslo. The result is 4 untitled tracks and 42 minutes of spontaneous compositions and melancholic ecstacy -  and one of the strongest statements in the label's 20+ years history of releasing free-music.

Fun fact: Anja Lauvdal is from the small town Flekkefjord in the south of Norway where Smalltown Supersound were founded - and from the age of 12 she was following the label's free jazz output - so it is really something of a full circle when she now debuts on Smalltown Supersound with a free jazz album.

Anja Lauvdal (born 1987) has collaborated with Jenny Hval (both live and on records), Hamid Drake, William Parker as well as members of The Necks. This is the first release under her own name. Recently Lauvdal compiled a double album of Norwegian improvised music titled Frijazz mot rasisme (Free Jazz against Racism). She also runs Oslo’s festival for improvised music All Ears that takes place at the Munch Museum in Oslo.
