This year you can experience the American multi-instrumentalist and composer Adam Rudolph in The Queen's Hall over two evenings. Rudolph is known for his work in particular world music, African and global jazz and fusion. He is considered one of the early innovators in world music. Through travels in Europe, Asia and Africa, Rudolph has learned to master percussion instruments in all their forms and has also recorded with names such as Yusef Lateef, Jon Hassell and Herbie Hancock.
“A pioneer in world music” - New York Times.
Tonight he brings his quartet: The Sunrise Quartet, bringing together core members of his long-standing Go´ Organic Orchestra to create a new electroacoustic world music ensemble. The musicians' experience and familiarity with Rudolph's creative vision and concepts offer endless possibilities. The alchemy between these artists creates music that is unique, deeply rooted and soulful.
This first night is Adam Rudolph with his own group from New York. On day two they merge with the Copenhagen Jazz Orchestra, as well as a selection of other Danish musicians, and we can promise – both nights will be absolutely exceptional!
