The vocalist Viktoria Tolstoy is the great melodramatist of jazz. After a performance, Pat Metheny once said to her, "When you sing, the sun rises." Like no other, she can make happiness sound fragile and threatened, and transform bitter things into something magical and beautiful. Jazz pianist Jacob Karlzon thrives on the in-between tones, the transitions, the ambiguous — whether inspired by classics like Grieg or hard rockers like KoRn. He has been Tolstoy's accompanist for over 20 years and will likely remain so. Despite his success in his own name, including highly acclaimed trio recordings on Warner Jazz, their musical partnership endures. Tolstoy & Karlzon form an intimate duo, entirely focused on their longstanding musical collaboration. After various international tours with larger line-ups, they will perform as a duo at the beautiful venue of Musikhuset København - providing the audience with an intimate and intense concert.
