Mathias Eick Quintet + support Lyder Røed Quintet
Internationally acclaimed Norwegian trumpeter takes you back to childhood with new album Lullaby. Pre-show by the Lyder Røed Quintet.
mathias eick, one of the most recognizable voices in norwegian jazz, is known for his melodic compositions and distinctive, atmospheric trumpet sound. as both a soloist and bandleader, he continues to refine his approach. his latest album lullaby (2024) explores universal memories of childhood through emotional and introspective music. the quintet performing this work features håkon aase (violin), torstein lofthus (drums), andreas ulvo (piano), and audun erlien (bass), each contributing their unique sound to eick’s compositions.
eick's ensemble brings together a blend of genres and influences, from folk traditions to classical and experimental jazz. aase's improvisations and lofthus' dynamic drumming add depth to eick’s melodic storytelling, while ulvo’s lyrical piano style and erlien’s soul-infused grooves complete the rich, textured sound. together, they create an intimate yet powerful experience, with lullaby serving as a testament to eick's ongoing artistic evolution and his ability to connect deeply with listeners.
beforehand, the lyder røed quintet opens with a short set. this young quartet of bandleader, composer and trumpeter lyder røed is inspired by the norwegian jazz scene on the one hand and american jazz such as art blakey and the jazz messengers, nat adderley and roy hargrove on the other.
