Career
Morten Qvenild started his jazz career in the big band Ung Musikk in 1995, followed by studies on the Jazz program at the Norges Musikkhogskole. He used to play in Ostenfor Sol with Ole Jorn Myklebust among others, with Myklebust's OJ Trio, Shining (1999–2003) and Jaga Jazzist (2000–2002).
Since 2000 Qvenild is the «orchestera» of Susanna & the Magical Orchestra and an original member of Solveig Slettahjell's Slow Motion Quintet as well a duo partner. Beyond these enduring collaborations Qvenild is also involved in the Jon Klette Quartet, The National Bank and he toured with Nils Petter Molvaer's Khmer and with Bertine Zetlitz Band (2003 and 2004).
In 2003 Morten Qvenild founded the trio In the Country with co-students Roger Arntzen (bass) and Pal Hausken (drums). They recorded five albums for Rune Grammofon. On the latter two –Whiteout (2009) and the live recorded Sounds and Sights (2011)– the band was joined by multi-instrumentalist Andreas Mjos. Their last release was issued by the German ACT label.
In 2011 he performed with Marit Larsen a new version of Erik Bye's Var beste dag. This has become NRK's tune in their profile campaign.
