Enjoy the summer and the jazzy notes of two musicians from the absolute jazz elite

Uffe Steen and Peter Vuust both belong to the Danish jazz elite and will perform as duo this afternoon at Salling ROOFTOP.

They will play a number of melodic and swinging songs, with the music moving between the genres of blues and jazz. Occasionally, the tempo will be high and the playing style equilibristic, but there will also be time for beautiful ballads.

Uffe Steen is one of the best and most unique guitarists. He is known for a very special and wild technique that comes from turning the guitar upside down. During his long career, he has played with a large number of acclaimed jazz and blues acts.

Uffe Steen is known for his passionate and engaging play, and his CDs which feature Adam Nussbaum on drums and others, have gained international recognition.

Peter Vuust is a professor at Aarhus University and the Royal Academy of Music, Aarhus / Aalborg, head of the Center for Music in the Brain and, additionally, one of the country's busiest sidemen. He has been featured on more than 90 records with international jazz stars such as Tim Hagans, Mal Waldron, Ted Curson, and Jukkis Uotila.

Peter Vuust is known for his groovy and responsive backing as well as extremely melodious solos. As a composer and bassist, he has published six albums, most recently Leaves of Love featuring Lars Jansson (p), Veronica Mortensen (voc) and Peter Asplund (trp).
