Ketil Bjornstad's three popular pre-ECM solo piano albums "Preludes 1 & 2" and "Pianology" have been out of print since the nineties.

we proud to make them available again as the 3LP set "Early Piano Music". "If ever there was a set of music that represented a love song to the beauty, subtle nuances and orchestral grandeur of the grand piano, it's Early Piano Music. (...)Bjornstad's greatest strength is his commitment to letting simple melodies speak for themselves, playing more with delicate phrasing than overt embellishment. (...)For 110 minutes of calming, meditative music filled with simple but unfailingly memorable melodies, Hubro's decision to bring Bjørnstad's lovely Early Piano Music back into print is a most welcome one." All About Jazz "A collection of rare beauty. While he has built up a pretty vast body of work, which has culminated with his association with ECM, it is quite a wonder why these recordings have remained unavailable for so long. Their release on Hubro is likely to expose Ketil Bjornstad to a new generation."
