A unique and intense concert experience

Halfdan Stefansson Trio shares love and respect for music and its greater essence.

The band's music is built on the present and interpreted openly and playfully in the moment. The songs reflect the ups and downs of life and are based on feelings of joy and sadness, uncertainty, and love. Here, the music can be both beautiful and searching, at the same time also ugly and angry, but it always has strong energy in it.

The trio's sound is influenced by jazz tradition, though with a more lyrical and minimalist approach and sound, and is strongly inspired by artists like Paul Motian, Jakob Bro, and Albert Ayler, while also including names like Radiohead, Björk, and The Strokes.

Alfred Lykke has been invited as a guest for this concert.

Alfred Lykke is a guitarist and composer based in Aarhus. He is active on the experimental and free improvisation scenes, including with his duo with saxophonist Maria Dybbroe, and the art-pop groups Natlyst and Iomfro, with whom he played at the Crown Prince Couple's Stjernedry Prize in 2021.

In 2018, he was awarded the Skivelegatet grant as a rhythmic soloist. He has also trained and played with international improvising musicians such as Julian Lage, Axel Dörner, Tristan Honsinger, and Chris Heenan.

Together, the four musicians will bring music to life on stage and create a unique and intense concert experience.
