This afternoon the extraordinary drummer Terri Lyne Carrington will present jazz interpretations on 1970s Funk songs by James Brown, Earth, Wind & Fire, Sly and the Family Stone, Rufus & Chaka Khan, and Stevie Wonder. Besides multiple Grammy Awards and countless other accolades,, she was awarded Musician of the Year in 2020 by the US Jazz Journalist Association.

The Niels Lan Doky International Jazz Collective (NLD IJC) will between June and December (excl. July) take up residence at the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art to produce five unique, exclusive and highly innovative concert projects. Terri Lyne Carrington and Alvin Queen will each lead their own concert alongside selected members of the NLD IJC to take us on a musical journey through jazz interpretations of repertoire and genres not previously translated through the lens of jazz. Furthermore, the Jazz/Takes Supergroup (Harvey Mason, Darryl Jones, Bill Evans, & Niels Lan Doky) will perform highlights from current and past seasons.

The Niels Lan Doky International Jazz Collective is an association of prolific musicians from Europe, North America and South America, devoted to presenting unique and exclusive jazz performances which cannot be heard anywhere else. The collective is led by pianist Niels Lan Doky.

The concert is supported by Augustinus Fonden, William Demant Fonden, Knud Højgaards Fond, Statens Kunstfond & Gangsted Fonden.
