Първоначално учи за класически пианист, но впоследствие се насочва към джаз музиката. В музикалната си кариера си сътрудничи с музиканти като виолончелиста Дейвид Дарлинг (David Darling), барабаниста Юн Кристенсен (Jon Christensen) и китариста Тере Рюпдал (Terje Rypdal).
Въпреки че е най-добре познат като музикант на звукозаписния лейбъл ECM, Бьорнста е и признат писател. Има публикувани над 20 книги, предимно новели и серия от поезия и есета.
