I saw them live in Liverpool, and it was quite amazing. Not new age at all.
I do agree that his best jazz works are his earlier stuff, for ex with Bobo Stenson, or Towner, or Bill Frisell.

Responding to myself.
Saw Garbarek (Jan that is) with the Hilliard in Geneva. Quite boring, I have to admit. He still has this tone, and tried to break the monotony a few times. But in the end, no good.

lol, i started out just doing the happy faces, but it's just really fun to click on all of them:D

I love the song strange noises. I don't see how she could ever be compared to Stina though. Nothing like her.

It's been quite awhile since we've heard anything new from Anja Garbarek. The daughter of renown ECM recording artist Jan Garbarek is oft compared to Stina Nordenstam, both for her reclusiveness and aura of mystery, but also because of her music. Anja's songs tend to be a bit more straightforward in terms of pop melody, but she shares a penchant with Stina for unusual sounds and arrangements. I think the new album "Briefly shaking" is Anja's best, most satisfying work yet - just check out the lead single "The last trick" and tell me you don't agree. I challenge you. If you're one of those folks who's enjoying the new Kate Bush record, this should appeal to you as well. Smart, experimental pop music as good as this does not happen nearly as often as it should.

Anja is currently recording music for the Luc Besson film Angel-A.

Wow, great info Puce! i've taken the liberty of posting this on imdb.com cause there's hardly any information on this film yet; the trailer on the website looks great though, allthough i'm not a big fan of b/w movies..
The soundtrack is completely made by Anja? also the instrumental tracks? That's really something [crazy]

Yes, it's an all Anja soundtrack.

In her site they say she's just done a video in Paris for Can I Keep Him? I hope it will be soon available.
