As I speak to Norwegian saxophonist and composer Trygve Seim by phone aboard a train leaving Hamburg, the station announcements pepper our conversation as he heads for Cologne. He’s off there to play two nights with a quartet, before heading on to Vienna. Such is the peripatetic life of the modern jazz musician.

Vienna will be something of a prolonged stop, however. He’ll be there to meet up with the Hungarian guitarist Zsofia Boros. The two plan to spend a week working on material for their upcoming show at Triskel Christchurch during the Guinness Cork Jazz Festival.
