Life

Kramer's interest in music began early in childhood, when he was a member of the Evje Music Corps . He continued his musical path as a student, including as a guard musician with the Sandvika Music Corps , while he was still attending the Valler videregående skole (secondary school or high school Valler). From 1953 to 1963 he worked in the Big Chief Jazz Band together with the musicians Eivind Solberg, Gerhard Aspheim, Øistein Lund, Ola Sværen and Bjørn Pedersen. At the same time he had some publications on records and he appeared in several television programs for the NRK , including 1954 in "Wrap your troubles in dreams" and 1956 in "Kansas city man blues". After further training as an instrument maker with Ivar Lundgren in Teatergaten in Oslo, he founded his own company in 1965 under the name "Gustav Kramer - reparasjon av blåseinstrumenter" ("Gustav Kramer -. Repair of wind instruments").

In 1979 Kramer exhibited his collection of stamps with jazz motifs to the public. In 1984 he and Knut Bohwim wrote the screenplay for the crime comedy Men Olsenbanden var ikke død from the Norwegian Olsenbanden film series, which won the 1986 Chaplin Prize. Furthermore, since 1991 Kramer has been editor, presenter and program manager for over 50 different programs on Jazzradio'n of the radio station Forbrukerradio-Radio 102.

In 2006 Kramer became a member of the Cabinorkesteret (cabin orchestra) in Drøbak. In 2012 he published his book Mine 10 år med Chiefen in the Old Lodge of Oslo (Gamle Logen am Grev Wedels plass 2) for the 60th anniversary of the Big Chief Jazzband . In 2016 he was involved as an author and editor on a book about jazz humor.

Kramer was married to the portrait painter Rigmor Saue (1931 to 2001). In 1984 she drew several works by Edvard Munch pictures as copies for the Norwegian Olsen Gang - Heist-Movie Men Olsenbanden var ikke død , which were then stolen or falsified in the film by the gang.
