Kresten Osgood Quintet (DK)
Kresten Osgood Quintet, one of Danish jazz's most important ensembles, presents a strong lineup featuring some of the country's finest musicians on saxophone, trumpet, piano, and bass.
Mads Lund Egetoft is a Danish tenor saxophonist and composer with a distinctive voice in Copenhagen's experimental jazz scene. He leads Doom Orchestra - a ten-piece horn ensemble with no rhythm section, performing his hyper-minimalist compositions - and is also known from the trio Boujeloud (later Baujillaud), which won a Danish Music Award Jazz for the album 'Candy Prince' in 2016. His saxophone tone is raw and vibrating, often compared to Archie Shepp, and he stands apart from much experimental Danish jazz by anchoring his music in tight compositional structure rather than free improvisation.
Copenhagen Music Committee granted support to Egetoft Ganguly quintet - a collaboration between Mads Lund Egetoft and Indian sitar player Debasish Ganguly - for a concert at Concert Church.
Mads Egetoft performed at Copenhagen Jazz Festival 2024 in Kongens Have as part of an experimental ensemble with, among others, Jeppe Zeeberg and Sture Ericson.
Boujeloud was revived under the name Baujillaud with Mads Egetoft, Emil Palme and Anders Vestergaard and released the album 'A Vision of a Dragons Head'.
