Original compositions, instrumental balance, and infectious humor

Horse Orchestra is an important band on the modern Nordic jazz scene. The band members succeed in combining parts of jazz history with modern, genre-breaking musical experiments.

Classical jazz compositions from 1920s New Orleans meet free jazz from the 60s and mix with modern classical music, resulting in an original, postmodernist style that is unmatched on the Nordic jazz scene.

Horse Orchestra consists of seven young musicians from Iceland, Sweden, Norway, and Denmark, and the band is a testimony from a new generation of musicians who master their musical historical heritage and try to help modern jazz music reach new heights.

For Horse Orchestra, humor is as important an element as instrumental equilibrium and moving compositions. In this way, the humorous and flourishing music is so contagious that you happily entertain the band's occasional extreme tonal experiments.
