about

Ja, “frygtløs” er han: i sin nysgerrige søgen efter efter nye former og udtryk. Hvo intet vover intet vinder! Jazznyt, Norge, 2008

★★★★… også på denne plade udfolder hans melodiske åre sig frodigt… Westergaard som en fornem solist. Politiken, 2007

Det er et højst interessant projekt som komponisten og bassisten Torben Westergaard har skabt, med det han kalder Torben Westergaard Oktober… Westergaard har lavet en afvekslende plade med melodisk og behagelig musik, der befinder sig et sted hvor ambient, klassisk, pop og jazz mødes. Jazznyt, 2007

Torben Westergaard møder Suzanne Brøgger og Eva Dahlgren og sød musik opstår. Gaffa, 2007

…mange spændende godbidder iblandt. Fyens Stiftstidende, 2007

Stämningsjazz. För den danske basisten Torben Westergaard är melodin och det klockrena ensemblespelet viktigare än soloimprovisationer och tvära kast. På Penelope, hans andra skiva med gruppen Oktober, får vi en auditiv färgpalett med självklart gnistrande lyster. Gruppen blandar centraleuropeiska tongångar med mjukt smeksam (men aldrig insmickrande eller substanslös) jazzpop och mer progressiv jazz.Eva Dahlgren sjunger fint i två spår, smakfullt konturerad av Allen Hinds dobro, operasångerskan Vibeke Kristensens röst ligger som ett extra instrument i två andra. Solistiskt dominerar annars Henrik Gundes sökande klaviaturflöden och Anders Bankes saxar. Men allt knyts samman i en stramt vacker helhet. Lira Musikmagasin (SE) Nov 12th 2007.

Music has taken me to more than 20 countries, and I have composed for various ensembles, TV series, documentaries, and commercials.
