It’s just been announced that the third CD by Jan Garbarek and the Hilliard Ensemble will have its UK launch at King’s College Cambridge on October 2nd . The CD, Officium Novum is being released on ECM on September 20th. Officium, the first, was released in 1995, Mnemosyne, the second in 1999. And the impossibly clever folk of Kings College Cambridge have improved the spelling of Garbarek’s surname to Gabarek. (UPDATE:it’s been corrected)

well, it's rather “Gabarak” whatever that means…
no, Garbarek is just right, it is polish equivalent of Smith or Johnes or as we usually call it surname:)
As a Cambridge resident and lifelong fan, with tickets to this gig, I am extremely happy, can't quite believe he's playing here.
