about

24 Ways (Volume II) is the second part of our collaboration with Sweden-based Trio Ramberget, an ensemble formed by previous collaborator Gustav Davidsson on the trombone, Johanna Ekholm on the double bass, and Pelle Westlin on the bass clarinet.

The concept of 24 Ways was born when Trio Ramberget recorded and released their latest album Musik att somna till (Music for falling asleep). Music as a purpose for well-being, be it sleeping, resting or contemplating, is something that they have explored since the beginning and something that their listeners and themselves have held as one of their best qualities. “We are interested in making music that can give the listener their own sense of imagery, to make their own movie to our soundtrack…”, tells the trio, “…so, with 24 Ways, we want to take this concept further: to create a space where you just don’t fall asleep, but where you can totally lose yourself in, music to accompany you during the 24 hours of the day”.

This album is their longest effort to date, clocking in at two and a half hours, and released in three volumes. There are 48 tracks: 24 preludes and 24 improvisations, each one in every key of the 12-tone scale. Some of the keys are presented in completely different ways and moods, as a reflection of their different sides and shapes as human beings, while some other keys feel seemingly alike, to accompany the feeling of calmness and reflection. During the recording sessions, Trio Ramberget decided to record all the pieces in order and in one row, from C major to B minor, to get an organic flow in the process. “As our moods, feelings and thoughts about the music progressed and changed, so did the music, and this was something we felt was important to keep intact”, they tell.

The approach of playing in all the keys is somewhat inspired by Das Wohltemperierte Klavier by Johann Sebastian Bach, which has been duplicated many times, and even has its predecessors in the 16th and 17th centuries. When the trio started planning the project, they also felt that the conceptual nature of playing through all the keys was something that suited them well. “Playing around with different concepts is something that we love, and also something that we find inspiring in searching for new ways to create music…”, they explain, “…limiting concepts in a limitless atmosphere, one could say, since all of our music is totally improvised”.

The second volume of 24 Ways is set to release on the 28 of February on digital format, accompanied by the limited edition CD pre-order of the entire project, which features artwork by PnC illustrator Jordan Amy Lee.
