Re: Rypdal?




Terje is a European (swiss?) guitarist/composer from the
ECM label.  As an ECM artist his style is "ambient jazz"
(meaning "lots of reverb").  He has a talent for bringing
about an orchestral sensibility in his compositions. A good
place to start is with _Descendre_.  His sound is similar
to Jan Garbarek's early stuff (Torn played with Jan) but
his compositional style is unique.  Very beautiful stuff.
You can find his work in any good jazz section.
