ENGLISH BELOW
En aften der tilbyder to særdeles hørværdige danske solo-performere på hvert sit instrument og med hver sin musikalske personlighed.
Guitaristen Mikkel Ploug er en særdeles dynamisk musiker i rivende udvikling. Hans spil bevæger sig ubesværet rundt i genrerne med et stærkt fokus på at bevare groovet og musikkens melodiske oprindelighed. Under Danmarks corona-nedlukning spillede Mikkel Ploug 28 aftener i træk fra sin altan – både for naboer og fans, der lyttede med fra hele verden. De velkendte viser og aftensange i nye guitarsolo-arrangementer er samlet på albummet ”Balcony Lullabies”, og denne aften rykker Ploug sangene fra altanen til Montmartres scene.
Pianisten Nikolaj Hess er en af de mest originale skikkelser i dansk jazz. Han er hele tiden på udkig efter nye udtryksmåder og har en konstant fastholdelse af musikkens stærke rytmik. Med projektet ”Impressions of Bob Dylan Revisited” tager Hess fat i sangskriveren Bob Dylans rige arkiv af fantastiske sange, som han giver helt nyt liv via sin evne til at fastholde og hele tiden give nye bud på variationer over de kendte og elskede sange.

_____________
An evening that offers two very authentic Danish solo performers, playing each their instrument with their own musical personality.
Guitarist Mikkel Ploug is a dynamic musician in rapid development. His playing moves effortlessly in between genres with a strong focus on preserving the groove and the melodic originality of the music. During Denmark's first COVID-19 shutdown, Mikkel Ploug played 28 nights in a row from his balcony - both for neighbors and fans who listened from all over the world. The lullabies and evening songs in new guitar solo arrangements are gathered on the album "Balcony Lullabies", and this evening Ploug moves from the balcony to Montmartre’s stage.
The pianist Nikolaj Hess is one of the most original figures in Danish jazz. He is constantly looking for new ways of expression and has a constant retention of the music's strong rhythm. With the project "Impressions of Bob Dylan Revisited", Hess tackles songwriter Bob Dylan's rich archive of fantastic songs, which he gives completely new life through his ability to maintain and constantly offer new suggestions for variations on the well-known and beloved songs.
