Winter Jazz: Adam Rudolph (2:2) – GO´ ORGANIC ORCHESTRA

Every winter there is Winter Jazz in The Black Diamond, where we, in collaboration with the Copenhagen Jazz Festival, present exciting and unique jazz concerts in The Queen's Hall.

Copenhagen Jazz Festival

We are happy and proud to be able to stage a number of concerts during the jazz festivals and in connection with The Black Diamond's summer programme, which includes jazz concerts in The Queen's Hall and under the sun on the harbour quay. Keep an eye on our website for more information about this year's jazz concerts!

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.

The first night is Adam Rudolph with his own group from New York. On this 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 unique!

“A pioneer in world music” - New York Times.

This evening, an expanded Copenhagen Jazz Orchestra will become Adam Rudolph's GO' ORGANIC ORCHESTRA. Over three days and a sea of Zoom meetings, the Copenhagen musicians have been thoroughly introduced to Adam Rudolph's thoughts, systems and compositions, and a legendary meeting awaits in the Queen's Hall between Adam Rudolph's SUNRISE QUARTET and the Copenhagen Jazz Orchestra.
