IPA, NORWAY

The Scandinavian improv scene has produced some of the finest, most mind-blowing talents in modern jazz, and in IPA Washington DC gets a great chance to see players from the cream of the new crop of groups such as Atomic, The Thing, and Motif. With two critically acclaimed albums and extensive touring under their belts, this fantastic, energetic, and melodic group features Norwegians Atle Nymo (Chick Corea, Pat Metheny) on sax/bass clarinet, double bassist Ingebrigt Håker Flaten (Evan Parker, The Thing), drummer Håkon Mjåset Johansen (Jan Garbarek, Håvard Wiik), and the great Swedish trumpeter Magnus Broo (Atomic).
