Led by an Award-Winning Vibraphonist

A unique musical experience awaits when Viktoria Søndergaard takes to the stage with Peter Vuust and Mikkel Vuust on this afternoon at Salling ROOTTOP.

Viktoria Søndergaard is a versatile vibraphonist who played with several seasoned, and like herself, young musicians from a young age. She is a skilled composer and as an instrumentalist, her playing is fearless and sensitive. In 2021, she completed her degree in Rhythmic Music and Movement at the Royal Academy of Music in Aarhus. She has also made recordings with bands such as Baryl, Odd Pocket, I Think You're Awesome, and Little Winther. Furthermore, in 2022, she received the Tivoli Jazz Prize in Copenhagen and later that year the Aarhus Jazz Talent award.

Peter Vuust is a professor at Aarhus University and the Royal Academy of Music and head of the Center for Music in the Brain. He has played on more than 100 records and with international jazz stars such as Tim Hagans, Mal Waldron, Ted Curson, and Jukkis Uotila. He is known for his groovy and responsive backing and extremely melodic soloing. Peter has also been nominated for a DMA for the CD September Song.

Mikkel Vuust is one of the country's most talented young drummers. Despite his young age, he has played with names such as Jakob Fisher, Uffe Steen, Henrik Gunde, and Sinne Eeg. He is currently studying at the Manhattan School of Music in New York and has just released the album Further To Fly with 5 x Vuust.
