Jacob Karlzon 3
Flagey Jazz
Jacob Karlzon is the pianist and head of the most exciting jazz trio in Sweden. Connoisseurs and musicians alike are already well aware of his qualities on the black and white ivory, or as a composer and musical director for famous colleagues but right now is the time Jacob Karlzon decided to take his talent into the spotlight with his own band. As his current album "More" impressively shows, Karlzon succeeds effortlessly to take the difficult art of the piano trio easily into higher spheres. His compositions show a wide array of influences that could not be further apart: from impressionism to ethno-sounds to US-metal to contemporary, lyrical jazz from Scandinavia, he sculpts a collection of pulsating, mesmerizing and harmonic songs unheard of before Jacob Karlzon came along.
