Trond's latest CD entitled Gifts
from the Ocean is now available. His lifelong love of the ocean, coupled with his many
experiences and adventures at sea as a sailor and licensed Captain, have
inspired a collection of melodic, instrumental works that have one theme
in common - they were inspired by the Ocean. If you want to learn more about Gifts from the Ocean please follow this link...

Critically acclaimed as "magical" and "timeless,"
Journey to the Heart is an instrumental CD packed with memorable melodies and vivid
imagery. It delivers a subtly powerful and highly pleasing emotional
punch in a variety of styles. There really is something here for all
generations and musical tastes. Well, OK, except for Rap. No
Punk, either. |

Below we have provided some
samples from the CD for your listening pleasure.
Please keep in mind, these samples are in MP3
format. This allows us to share them with you over a slow medium
like the Internet - but our audio engineers simply cannot restrain
themselves from pointing out that the CD itself sounds far
superior. If you want to hear this music in its full,
digitally-mastered glory, you'll just have to buy the CD. But,
you're in luck, we
can happily help you with that.
Some MP3's from Journey
to the Heart
The soaring violin and orchestra in
"Tapestry of Illusions'" places you in the middle of a
gorgeous meadow in the Bavarian Alps.

"Sailing South"
was actually written aboard Trond's sailing yacht, Valhalla
III, while underway in the Caribbean from Florida to points South. Close your eyes,
open your mind, and see if you can't feel the sea's
swell rocking you as you plough along. Notice the increasingly
Latin feel as you get further South?

Briefly, here are the mindscapes that
inspired a few of the other pieces on the CD, just to give you an idea
of where else this music can take you.
The
retro feel of "Night Drive" puts you behind the wheel of a
fast car in the hills above Los Angeles.
The majestic and serene
"Nebula" transports you deep into outer space.;
Two of Beethoven's most memorable themes
serve as the foundation for the deeply moving symphonic tribute,
"Requiem for Oklahoma City," a song that was once called
"Flying with Angels."
