At the concert at Paradise Jazz, the quartet will perform compositions from Cecilie Strange’s five albums released under her own name.

Her sixth album is due out in spring 2027, and the audience will also get a small preview of the forthcoming release.

On stage, Cecilie Strange will play saxophone alongside Peter Rosendal on piano, Anders AC Christensen on bass and Jakob ""Lilfar"" Høyer on drums.

Cecilie Strange graduated from the Danish National Academy of Music in Odense with a master’s degree in saxophone and composition.

Her album BEYOND won Jazz Recording of the Year at the Presto Music Awards in the UK in 2023.

That same year, the album was nominated for Jazz Release of the Year at the Danish Music Awards, while Strange was nominated for Jazz Composer of the Year.

Over the years, she has collaborated with, among others, Mikkel Hess, Josefine Cronholm, Makiko Hirabayashi, Kasper Tranberg, Nikolaj Hess and Emil de Waal.

DownBeat Magazine has praised Strange’s full, deep tenor saxophone sound and the close interplay with her quartet.” www.paradisejazz.dk
