Norwegian trumpeter and sonic architect Nils Petter Molvaer presents Khmer Live in Bergen - a charged reinvention of his era-defining 1997 ECM release KHMER - recorded in concert in 2023. Fused with live trip-hop beats, ambient haze and Nordic lyricism, Khmer Live in Bergen amplifies a new energy with deeper grooves, sharper edges and greater dynamic intensity, pushing the music into a rawer, driven by experience, control and creative vision.
Performed with a newly expanded band and released on Edition Records, Khmer Live in Bergen captures the volatile electricity of Molvær’s live sound — fluid, restless and saturated with feeling. Khmer Live in Bergen is a testament to Nils Petter Molvær’s continued growth, experimentation and desire to challenge himself. The album is a powerful reminder that his sound remains vital, forceful and fully alive - constantly evolving with greater clarity, depth and intent.
