BJARKE FALGREN QUARTET at Jazzhus Montmartre

Denmark has a kind of patent on fine jazz violinists: Svend Asmussen was the first. Then followed by Kristian Jørgensen, Mads Tolling and also this evening's main character, Bjarke Falgren. With an uncontrollable musicality, a fine sense of playing the right notes at the right time and a distinguished ability to refine and integrate his playing in all contexts, Falgren is something completely out of the ordinary. Falgren plays with everyone around the world. He composes music for films and TV series, and then he has this quartet that picks up colors from the entire palette: jazz, classical, Brazilian, and not least folk music....

Denmark has a kind of patent on fine jazz violinists: Svend Asmussen was the first. Then followed by Kristian Jørgensen, Mads Tolling and also this evening's main character, Bjarke Falgren. With an uncontrollable musicality, a fine sense of playing the right notes at the right time and a distinguished ability to refine and integrate his playing in all contexts, Falgren is something completely out of the ordinary. Falgren plays with everyone around the world. He composes music for films and TV series, and then he has this quartet that picks up colors from the entire palette: jazz, classical, Brazilian, and not least folk music.
With his irresistible swing, Bjarke Falgren stands out as something very special in contemporary Danish jazz music. He deservedly received the very first "The Ellen & Svend Asmussen Prize" in 2017. Look forward to enjoying a great musician at one of his rare concerts on Danish soil.

Danmark har en slags patent på fine jazzviolinister: Svend Asmussen var den første. Siden fulgte bl.a. Kristian Jørgensen, Mads Tolling og således også denne aftens hovedperson, Bjarke Falgren. Med et ustyrligt musikalsk spil, en fin sans for at spille de rigtige toner på det rette tidspunkt og fornemme evne til at forfine og integrere sit spil i alle sammenhænge er Falgren noget helt ud over det sædvanlige. Falgren spiller med Gud og hvermand verden over. Han komponerer musik til film og tv-serier, og så har han denne kvartet, der henter farver fra hele paletten: jazz-, klassisk-, brasiliansk- og ikke mindst folkemusikken.
Med sit uimodståelige swing står Bjarke Falgren frem som noget ganske særligt i nutidig dansk musik. Han modtog således fortjent den allerførste ”The Ellen & Svend Asmussen Prize” i 2017. Se frem til at nyde en stor musiker ved en af sine sjældne koncerter på dansk grund.
