Cosmic Creation
follows and expands upon
Arve Henriksen
's 2013 album
Places of Worship
(RCD 2147CD/RLP 3147LP), a series of tone poems and mood pieces located around religious buildings and ruins. With
Cosmic Creation
he has gone beyond physical place to an audio exploration of pure rapture, contemplation and universal origins. His latest piece, in eight parts, enters deep space and time to convey a powerful sense of the eternal. Born in Norway and currently living in Sweden, Arve Henriksen was known for many years as a distinctive trumpet player and improvisor. He played in various jazz ensembles in his youth before co-forming
Supersilent
in 1997, a prolific free music group with
Helge Sten
(
Deathprod
) and
Ståle Storløkken
, which is still ongoing. His trumpet, augmented with effects and electronics, has appeared with
David Sylvian
,
Terje Rypdal
,
Nils Petter Molvær
,
Jon Balke
,
Terje Isungset
and
Iain Ballamy
's
Food
. With Supersilent he recently collaborated with former
Led Zeppelin
bassist
John Paul Jones
. In parallel he has created a series of exquisite and distinctive solo recordings since 2001 (released on Rune Grammofon and ECM), which feature a combination of electronic textures, digital treatments and a dazzling collection of horns, woodwinds, ethnic instruments, percussion, keyboards and occasionally his mournful, yearning singing voice. Henriksen's music reflects both the stunning beauty of virgin wilderness and the shifting, cosmopolitan environments experienced by the 21st century traveler.
Cosmic Creation
is released in a double set with
Chron
, an album which was first released as part of 2012's
Solidification
(RLP 2137LP) retrospective box set on Rune Grammofon. If
Cosmic Creation
is about timelessness,
Chron
is very much rooted in the modern world and the here and now, with most of its source material derived from field recordings Arve made while touring the globe, or recordings made in hotel rooms, airports and other urban locations. Taken together, the two albums give a full picture of Arve's extraordinary breadth of vision as an artist.
