As a part of the Vancouver Cultural Olympiad The Coastal Jazz & Blues Society presents the Norwegian jazz group Håvard Wiik Trio. The last decade Håvard Wiik has become one of Norway's most prominent jazz pianists. At the age of 17 he played at the Molde Jazz Festival in cooperation with the bassist Steinar Raknes. Together with drummer Håkon Mjåset Johansen and bassist Ole Morten Vågan they will present a fresh view on the classic piano trio format. Get ready for an extraordinary jazz experience as the group will play pieces from for instance their distinguished CD The Arcades Project.
