Grand tour at senior citizens homes

Good morning!
Today I have the pleasure to start a 26 concert long tour at senior citizens homes around Göteborg. It's a real pleasure to do this with saxophonist Mikael Godée who is my collegue, fellow musician, duo-partner whom I have collaborated with for years now. We explore music in the borderlands of jazzmusic and folkmusic, all the time focusing around melody, improvisation, openess in listening, sound, colour of tone.

I hope we'll touch some hearts along our tour, presenting some of the joyous songs from the wedding traditions in nordic countries. Among other songs I will also sing a song written by Svarta Masken, a creative, musical and a little bit "mysterious" woman who worked as performer and author in Stockholm in the 1920th. She used humour as her tool. Her name was Anna Myrberg, born in Norberg, and she lived between 1878-1931.

Most of all we will make sure the audience will have a moment of live music, close and warm. The performances most often take place in the dining rooms, and it's easy to walk around and get close contact with the listeners. Small rooms where the acoustics might be a little dry, but we'll do it the best we can. It's going to be fun!

Have a nice day!
