Creative grace, regardless of origins The trademark of MUSIC FOR A WHILE is the group's personal, organic and creative approach to the material, regardless of its origins.

Whether the point of departure is Kurt Weill's familiar cabaret melodies or songs and pieces from the classical repertoire, two elements consistently stand out: vocalist Tora Augestad's vocal control and unique communication skills, and the band's elegant, seamless and genre-crossing treatment of the material.

MUSIC FOR A WHILE tear down boundaries and crumbling conventions, bringing the music even closer to its origins. In addition to singer Tora Augestad, the ensemble features a dream team of Norwegian jazz musicians:

Stian Carstensen, accordion & pedal steel
Mathias Eick, trumpet
Martin Taxt, tuba
Pål Hausken, drums & percussion
