We saw him one cold night at the Wexner Center on campus about 7 or 8 years ago and have followed him ever since. He plays music to make soft taffee or love with.

Beautiful indeed!!! The sax player sounds a bit too Jan Garbarek like...that's not a bad thing, but finding a voice all his own would be nice! But what a great place to start! And what a respectful nod to Jan.

This is really wonderful music

@chauntzu You are completely wrong . I played and recorded with Tore and know him since 20 years . Even if of course Garbarek was the 1st scandinavian exploring some ways to play his instrument and all them at the beginning listened him , now Tore is completely original , in sound voice improvising and experiences . you really cant imagine HOW MUCH he is good and how he is following his own personal ways . Tore is greater than most of people can understand .

@isivip1 LMAO...Ok, whatever! My comment was compliment not a diss!!! I've been a performing musician for over 45 years...Developing ones own voice is what it's all about. I get it! :o)

This brings back memories of a brilliant concert by this ensemble in Kongsberg last summer. Great musicianship and passion, such sensitivity and expressiveness. It brought tears to my eyes again, especially the section of "Returned, Restored"
