Cool jazz with Danish warmth

Jazzselskabet Aarhus (Aarhus Jazz Society) rounds off Aarhus Jazz Festival with a concert that draws connections to a significant chapter in jazz history.

Cool Sweetness Sextet is cool jazz from the American west coast mixed with the special Danish tone and played with the special Danish warmth.

The American West Coast style is the primary source of inspiration. Expect fresh, swinging, and quirky jazz similar to when Gerry Mulligan, Art Pepper, Frank Rosolino, and Chet Baker played at The Lighthouse in California in the 1950s.

The concert will also be a reunion with a number of musicians who have all previously distinguished themselves as part of Jazzsekskabet Aarhus.
