Nestled beside a spectacular fjord halfway up the western coast of Norway, the small town of Molde has hosted a major international jazz festival for the last 46 years. This summer Fiona Talkington paid a visit to discover more about the history and importance of this popular event. In the first of three programmes, saxophonist
Jan Garbarek describes how the festival played a formative role in the development of his career. This year's artist-in-residence, saxophonist Michael Brecker , performs with Norwegian/Bulgarian band Farmers' Market, and percussionist Terje Isungset plays a piece commissioned by the festival.
