Legardh (voc) og Flosason (sax) præsenterer HELT NY musik til denne koncert. Poetisk, indlevende, energisk og hudløst ærligt. Med sig har de ingen ringere end to eminente musikere; pianisten, Jacob Christoffersen, og bassisten Jesper Thorn.

Jazzsangerinden, Cathrine Legardh (DK), og saxofonisten, Sigurdur Flosason (IS) har haft et musikalsk samarbejde siden 2009, hvor de sad fanget under vulkanen på Island. Det blev til et dobbeltalbum ’Land & Sky’ (Storyville Records 2011), som fik flotte anmeldelser og bl.a. blev nomineret til Årets vokaljazz-album til Music Awards i både Danmark og Island. Teksterne er skrevet af Cathrine Legardh og musikken komponeret af Sigurdur Flosason.

Danish singer and Icelandic saxophonist Sigurdur Flosason have worked extensively together for over a decade, mostly in Denmark. In 2011 they released the double CD Land & Sky – written while being stuck under the volcano in Iceland in 2009. The album received excellent reviews and was nominated ‘Vocal Jazz Album of the Year’ at both the Danish and the Icelandic music awards. The lyrics are written by Legardh and the music is composed by Flosason. In this concert they will present brand new music – possibly mixed with a few older pieces – and maybe even a jazz standard or two. They bring two FABULOUS musicians, Jacob Christoffersen (piano) and Jesper Thorn (bass).
