Manafonistas

Drummer Kresten Osgood is the Jack of all trades on the Danish jazz-scene and yes, he has recorded an album with Paul Bley (even as Jakob Bro). As you can see he is a kind of tornado guy. Here he’s doing a short survey on jazz history – by demonstrating. He is a member of the ILK collective in Copenhagen.
 
 
 

 
 
 
Concerning Marie-Laurette Friis: you can learn more about her if you read my review of her recent performance in Copenhagen – just out on All About Jazz . She is an exceptional performer.

And here once again a picture from Osgood’s lecture on jazz history – together with Kasper Tranberg, trumpet, and Jonas Westergard, double-bass. His bass drum says: „Music Is The Healing Force Of The Universe.“
