Anna Roemer with Strings

Jazz guitarist and composer Anna Roemer has established herself as one of the most original voices on the Danish music scene. With her distinctive guitar sound and a pedalboard as a co-performer, she creates present, image-creating and deeply personal soundscapes. The album Blåregn was released in 2024 to great enthusiasm from both audiences and critics. GAFFA responded with six stars and called the album "a masterpiece", and the release simultaneously earned Anna Roemer the Carl Prize as Composer of the Year in jazz. In this new concert version, Blåregn is reborn with a refined string arrangement that adds new nuances and depth to the music. The project had a strong debut at this year's Spot Festival, where the concert was met with enthusiastic reviews and praise for the successful interplay between guitar and strings. On stage together with Anna Roemer and her Fender Jazzmaster, you can experience Maria Jagd on violin, Line Felding on cello and Jeppe Skovbakke on double bass. Together they create an intense and sensory concert experience for all with an interest in innovative Danish jazz and atmospheric instrumental music in close harmony with the unique acoustics of Brønshøj Water Tower. The reviewers wrote: "Three strings are the right ingredients to spice up Anna Roemer's strange guitar music with. The four musicians are very welcome to put on more concerts together." – All That "A very successful meeting, which leads to more." – Jazznyt Listen to the music on Youtube. NOTE: The Water Tower is not heated - remember warm clothes. The doors open at 19.30. Supported by the Danish Arts Foundation and the Copenhagen Music Committee.
