Welcome to this year's grand New Year's celebration! DR Big Band opens the year with a magnificent New Year's concert at Musikhuset, where this European showcase meets one of jazz's most acclaimed voices.
Cécile McLorin Salvant — triple Grammy Award winner and among her generation's most important jazz vocalists — performs alongside conductor Miho Hazama, DR Big Band, and her longtime pianist Sullivan Fortner. The evening features jazz classics, iconic pop melodies, and pieces from Salvant's own repertoire, marked by great musicality, presence, and refinement.
Cécile McLorin Salvant is known and beloved worldwide for her exquisite artistic approach. Politiken has called her »a genius« and compares her to legends such as Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughan, and Billie Holiday. She has won three Grammy Awards and received six additional nominations.
