Aksiom

Aksiom is an ensemble for new music based in Oslo, Norway. It was founded in 2010, and held its debut concert October 2nd the same year in Grønland kirke. The basic line-up consists of 9 musicans (flute, saxophone, trombone, percussion, piano, guitar, violin, cello and double bass) and conductor Kai Grinde Myrann, but the ensemble performs also in smaller or larger constellations. Aksiom focuses on developing new pieces with composers (among others Johan Svensson, Øyvind Mæland, Martin Ødegaard and Martin Rane Bauck), and also on improvisation, giving concerts within both fields on a regular basis. photo: Jorn Pedersen
