My sønderhoning project is chugging along. In May we met for the first rehearsal with the full band. Next meeting will be in September. Recordings to take place in November. I'm pretty exited about this. Stay tuned for updates !

Wow ! This is huge ! My old friend Peter Danemo and I get to record our music with our hero, Swedish piano great Bobo Stenson. We've been in the studio in May, Joel Illerhag playing the bass. Album to be released on Stunt Records sometime in the fall this year.
Rehearsing at Bobo's place.
I've finaly managed to set up af store, to sell some of the CD's and vinyls I've had lying around for so long. Here's the store
Also I've uploaded a ton of lead sheets and scores for my music. Particularily the music for Tone of Voice Orchestra and music for big band, but also several more songs with lyrics by Trinelise Væring for smaller ensembles. Go ahead and download and play. Only please remember to report it to whatever copyright organization you're a member of, when performing my music to an audience!
I've been studying with master musician Peter Uhrbrand of Sønderho on Fanø in 2024. He has taught me the language of the unique music of Sønderho for all of 2024. In November 2024 we played a concert/dance together at Cafe Nanas Stue in Sønderho. You can get a feel for how it went in the video. I'm very excited about getting to work on music mixing the sønderhoning with my own music. First step will be an arrangement of a “Fisken ligger på hviden sand” for Tone of Voice Orchestra to be recorded for our next album in a couple of weeks. More about that later.
I'll be touring with ToVO in November and December.
This is where we'll be. Detaails in “Calendar”.
Am so proud of this new song, here's a live version played by the womderful Odense Jazz Orchestra and yours truly at Tobaksgården in Assens.
