TIM BERNE is a composer, saxophonist, band-leader and educator specializing in jazz and
improvised music. A tour de force on this scene, he has been performing internationally since
1982 with various ensembles including, most recently, Snakeoil and Sun of Goldfinger. He has
made over 50 recordings as a leader for labels such as Soul Note, Sony, JMT, ECM and Intakt,
while simultaneously running his own independent label Screwgun Records. He has taught
extensively since the late 90s and given workshops around the world and is the recipient of
many international awards and residencies.
AURORA NEALAND is a sound artist and multi-instrumentalist (saxophones, accordion, voice)
Since moving to New Orleans in 2004 she has become a prominent force in both the traditional
and non-traditional music scene working in bands such as The Royal Roses, The Monocle
Ensemble, Redrawblak Trio, and the Instigation Orchestra. She is equally at home on the stages
of concert halls and festivals around the world, playing music in the streets and clubs of New
Orleans, or touring in crammed vans to squat houses. She is also an educator, and has been
awarded several residencies across the US.
Over his nearly four-decade career, HANK ROBERTS has forged a compelling original voice as a
cellist and composer, encompassing jazz influences, abstract improvisation, soulful folk
melodies, intricate new-music compositions and vigorous rock songs. Initially making his name
on New York’s downtown scene in the 80s alongside such frequent collaborators as Bill Frisell,
Tim Berne, Marc Ribot and John Zorn, he is now considered a major innovator as a cellist, and
band-leader and recording artist in his own right. Currently he is a member of Bill Frisell’s
Harmony group and performs regularly with his own sextet.
Improverk is supported by Norsk Kulturråd, Oslo Kommune & Norsk Jazzforum
