kl 20 Cardinaux / Dereviancenko / Mofjell / Thomsen
Our September artist in residence is none other than the incredible Søren Kjærgaard!
Søren Kjærgaard’s work as a pianist, composer and improviser encompasses a variety of settings ranging from his trans-Atlantic trio with drummer Andrew Cyrille and bassist Ben Street, to the duo collaboration with Torben Ulrich, the 82 year old legendary Danish tennis player and inter-disciplinary artist. Most of his activities in recent years have been exploring and interweaving different approaches to music and sound, converging elements of improvisation, composition, performativity and practice into one dynamic field of play. This has lead to a manifold of international exchanges, commissions and a growing discography of critically acclaimed albums. Mr Kjærgaard is one of the heaviest players i town, a natural improviser with a unique vision on the piano. we are very very exited to present this great artist each monday in september. since he has been researching solopiano in the last year, mr Kjærgaard will begin each of his residency nights with a solo piece and then be joined by a stellar cast of collaborators!

He is known within the improvising community on the East Coast and in parts of Europe for his light-handed touch at the piano, and for his patience and clarity in developing ideas within the framework of music and poetry. Cardinaux’s first album as a leader, American Thicket, was released in 2016 on Loyal Label, and features Mat Maneri (viola), Thomas Morgan (bass), Flin van Hemmen (drums and percussion), and the author himself (piano, voice, and poetry).

He has a big sound on the bass and an endless flow of ideas. Speaking of big sounds and endless flow, the same can be said of Boston based piano genius and Poet Eliot Cardinaux. He has studied with Ran Blake, released several albums (notably "Odysseus Alone" feat. Thomas Morgan and Kresten Osgood and American Thicket feat. Mat Maneri) Both Johnson and Cardinaux have worked several times with drummer Kresten Osgood. This is their first trio gig. Be There!
