Born in Ålesund (Norway) in 1943, Kjell Flem studied with Einar Englund and Einojuhani Rautavaara, going on to distinguish himself as a much-celebrated composer of Scandinavian contemporary music. His compositions are generally non-radical and atmospherically engaging, creating an ambience that is deeply rooted in the natural landscape of his homeland. His output is not extensive; rather, he allows himself long creative periods because, in his own words, truly magical moments of inspiration are rare.
