The Swedish jazz pianist Jan Lundgren plays with a superb poetic sensitivity that instantly grabs the attention of the listener and goes straight to the heart. He lifts the legacy of Sweden’s great pianist Jan Johansson like no other.

Svenske Jan Lundgren er en af de mest poetiske pianister i jazzen. Hvad end han gør, spiller han sig lige ind i hjertet og sindet på publikum. Han løfter arven fra Jan Johansson som ingen anden. Hans seneste udgivelse ”Potsdamer Platz” har fået meget fine anmeldelser med på vejen af bl.a. AllAboutJazz og The Guardian, der hylder albummet for dens nordiske tone og melodi som bliver fusioneret med indslag fra en række andre stilarter og traditioner. På pladen bliver han akkompagneret af finske Jukka Perko på saxofon, svenske Dan Berglund på bas og Morten Lund på trommer. Hele den skandinaviske kvartet vil være at finde i huset, når de indtager Montmartres scene.
