Atmospheric jazz and songs in Swedish

Here is a unique chance to hear the jazz singer Cathrine Legardh in a tribute to the Swedish jazz icon Monica Zetterlund.

Two excellent musicians will be by her side: Jacob Christoffersen (piano) and Jesper Thorn (bass).

You can expect a warm, outgoing and hair-raising concert experience in resonating Swedish language.

The repertoire is a selection of Monica's Zetterlund's many and diverse musical gems - some more well-known than others. The concert thus contains both folk and revue songs as well as jazz standards translated into Swedish by, among others, Beppe Wolgers and Hasse and Tage, Povel Ramel and Olle Adolphson - in addition to songs from the collaboration with Bill Evans.

Cathrine Legardh has toured with great success in Scandinavia - for full venues such as Stadsteatret in Stockholm and Helsinki.

"Legardh sings with style, authority and credibility. Annexing the Monica Zetterlund classic 'Slowly we go through town'  and then just making it her own is a great achievement."
(***** Kjeld Frandsen, Berlingske).

Due to the fact that in we celebrate 100 years of jazz in Aarhus in 2019, Aarhus Jazz Festival presents a number of concerts focusing on historical jazz music. This concert is one of them and is carried out with support from the William Demant Foundation, the CAC Foundation and the Nordea Foundation "We support good living".
