Cornelia Nilsson Trio

Award-winning Swedish drummer Cornelia Nilsson (b. 1992) is making waves on the Scandinavian jazz scene. Since 2016, she has performed around Europe with musicians like Ben Besiakov, Tim Hagans, Seamus Blake, Mathias Landæus, Anders ’AC’ Christensen, Tomas Franck, Gilbert Holmström, and many others.

She subbed in piano legend Kenny Barron’s trio in 2019, and in May of 2022, she played with bass icon Ron Carter.

WHERE DO YOU GO? -- an impressive and moving debut from the Swedish drummer and composer, presents her in two trio settings - one featuring the brilliant American pianist Aaron Parks and the other, Hungarian tenor titan Gabor Bolla. Superb Swedish bassist Daniel Franck joins Nilsson throughout the entire album.

For this occasion we will hear Nilsson in close interaction with the innovative pianist Søren Kjærgaard and the equilibristic bassist Nils Bo Davidsen.

What to expect:

The trio explores space and beauty combined with volcanic energy in an acoustic setting and shares a sense of immediate recognition and natural musical understanding.

Let go and let the music lead the way through a set filled with original compositions and sketches but first and foremost: improvisation.

The concert will be a shorter, concentrated experience without an intermission.
