Ensemble play at the highest level

Casper Hejlesen is a 22-year-old guitarist and composer from Northern Jutland who is based in Amsterdam. During his relatively short career, he has received numerous awards and toured in countries such as Germany, France, the Netherlands, Lithuania, Sweden, and Denmark.

In 2020, he released his critically acclaimed debut album Overture, featuring some of the most talented acts on the Danish jazz scene. The album describes growing up in idyllic Northern Jutland but also evokes the chaotic life in which artists often find themselves.

To mark the occasion, Casper has invited two experienced and well-known musicians from the Danish jazz scene to join him on stage – Torben Bjørnskov on bass and Lasse Schjerning on drums.

The group will play compositions by Casper himself, but also by both Torben and Lasse.
