The Mighty Mouse
The Danish/Norwegian piano trio The Mighty Mouse has constituted the backbone of several musical settings for years, and toured in Europe with artists such as Maria Faust, Peter Brötzmann, Petter Wettre, Jesper Zeuthen, John Tchicai, Lisbeth Diers and Peter Friis-Nielsen.
Lately, the trio has settled to explore their own repertoire of original compositions based on a highly developed interplay that is not afraid of taking the trio format to the extreme.
The character of the music is transparent and builds on melodic and rhythmical sketches as a basis for open improvisation. The great freedom and the responsibility that follows with this form of music is evident for the musicians as well as the audience and results in an honest art form that does not seduce the listener with cheap tricks but instead focusses on the immediate process of creation.
