Lately he has had an extensive musical collaboration with the Danish Jazz musicians Jonas Westergaard (bass) and Anders Mogensen (drums) respectively in trio and quartet format.

Giants as Dave Liebman, Joey DeFrancesco, Kenny Wheeler, Adam Nussbaum and Manu Katche do not decline an opportunity to cooperate with this important Norwegian profiled saxophonist.
