Karl Seglem - Ossicles ( OZELLA MUSIC 2011)

The associative power and immediacy of his music paradoxically make Seglem set fire to emotions in the midst of the Northern cold. --Jazzpodium
A unique blend of jazz and folk Ossicles is Karl Seglem's best album yet! An outstanding artist with a very individual, modern sound based on archaic Norse traditions. Norway s poet of the goat horn has made his very best album with Ossicles. Top release from an emerging European art label.

Hearing is believing / By BARRY DAVIS /Jerusalem Post
With ‘Ossicles,’ Norwegian saxophonist and goat-hornist Karl Seglem traverses Scandinavia, the Mideast and Africa.
Of all the weird and wonderful names that have been conferred upon jazz album over the years, Ossicles is probably one of the strangest. It’s the title of the latest CD released by Norwegian jazz saxophonist Karl Seglem, who will perform at the Red Sea Winter Jazz Festival in Eilat this Friday (January 20).
