About
Montmartre starts the Jazz Festival with a tribute to the Danish jazz scene. An evening where you can meet excerpts from "The Great American Songbook", perhaps Scandinavian folk tunes or new compositions - anything can happen. Two piano trios gathered especially for this evening, where history and tradition are put into the contemporary. The first section begins with one of the most legendary "marriages" in Danish jazz: Alex Riel and Bo Stief. Together and separately, they have formed the rhythmic and harmonic foundation for the biggest international musicians in Montmartre such as Ben Webster, Dexter Gordon, but also an endless list of legends from the Danish music scene. With them on stage they have the pianist and composer Henrik Gunde, who, in addition to being permanent sideman in DR's Big Band, is one of the most sought-after pianists on the Danish jazz scene....
