Terje Rypdal

[Pining for the Fjords]

Has anyone come across any charts, tabs or transcriptions of Terje's compositions?
Also any ideas about his gear set up?
There does not seem to be a great deal of info floating around on the Net unless I'm looking in the wrong spots

Did a search myself, but did not come up with a much. Would be great to have an official book from the great master. I did transcribe a few of his tunes many years ago (chaser and per ulv ?), but don't know if I have a copy anymore.

Terje uses a volume pedal and delay to get that awesome violin tone. He usually plays on the bridge pickup of his strat and his vibrato is done w/ either his left hand or the whammy bar. He is a wonderful player who has been making great music for a long, long time.

Here's a good interview that covers Terje's gear: http://www.guitarplayer.com/article/...ust-2006/22086


His duo CD with Ketil Bjornstad, 'Life in Liepzieg', was one of the best releases of 2008.

It is a great cd. I love The Sea and The Sea 2 also w/ Bjornstad and Rypdal. Terje has so much great music out there.

I just watched a Terje DVD that came up on my Netflix queue. Trio concert with Trilok and Miraslav. Whew!!!! I'm reminded of how much I love him and what an original force he is every time I listen to him.
He's a different cup of tea altogether!!
