The splendour of Norwegian mountains meets the
warmth of the Mediterranean sea. Tiar consists of
Lars Lien (saxophones), Åsmund Reistad (double
bass) and Geko Fattal (oud). The musicians have
different musical backgrounds, where elements from
Norwegian and Lebanese traditional music, contemporary
music and jazz are mixed together. The
result is a truly unique musical experience. The
expression is playful and improvised, ranging from
the rhythmical and pulsing to the intimate and
lyrical. Most of the music are written by the Tiar
members themselves, with the addition of some
traditional Norwegian and Middle Eastern pieces.
The trio have played together since 2007, and this is
their debut album.
