Friday Jazz on the Waterfront: Trio Treasures: Hass – Lee – Melvin
Come and listen to live jazz on the harbour in front of The Black Diamond - with free entry!
This Friday we present a new dynamic trio, consisting of the saxophonist Thomas Hass, the guitarist Søren Lee and the American drummer Brian Melvin, who saw the light of day during the Copenhagen Jazz Festival 2023.
The music is characterised by Søren Lee's atmospheric and spherical guitar sound, which creates fertile ground for Thomas Hass's lyrical tones. Accompanied by Brian Melvin's colourful and far-reaching meditative drumming, they create a completely unique and personal shared musical expression.
The repertoire consists of original compositions, open improvisations, carefully selected standards and compositions by, among others, John Coltrane. An open and lyrical universe with roots in both Scandinavian and American jazz.
The group will release its first EP over the summer of 2024. And the second is already expected to be released in early 2025.
Experience jazz on the waterfront every Friday – and one Friday jazz on a Thursday – from June to mid-July
In the afternoon sun in front of The Black Diamond, there is Friday jazz from June to mid-July – and one instance of Friday jazz on a Thursday! Experience both established names and representatives of the exuberant Danish talent pool.
The café's pop-up bar serves cold drinks, snacks and a delicious summer atmosphere.
