Søren Kristiansen Trio at Jazzhus Montmartre

Søren Kristiansen has accompanied many great American musicians and is today considered as one of the leading Danish jazz musicians. He comes from an era before jazz pianists were produced in educational facilities with shining pianos. Instead, like many other great musicians, he has been mentored in clubs by the ones who came before him.

Søren Kristiansen har akkompagneret stribevis af store amerikanske musikere, og regnes i dag som en af de betydeligste danske jazzmusikere. Han er fra før den tid, hvor jazzpianister var noget man producerede på en uddannelsesinstitution med blankpolerede flygler. I stedet har han som alle store musikere stået i mesterlære på jazzklubberne hos dem, som kom før ham. I de senere år har Søren Kristiansen udgivet en stribe flot-anmeldte plader i eget navn og fremstår i dag som en af de mest personlige pianister, vi har. På denne aften vil han blive akkompagneret af Thomas Ovesen på bass og Alex Riel på trommer.
