On "Eternal Beauty", Landgren once again shines, in addition to his unique skills on the trombone, with his gently touching voice. He trusts his tried and tested team around Lars Danielsson and Michael Wollny: "When we start playing, that's when the magic begins!" Musical diamonds from George Harrison's "Isn't It A Pity" to Mr. Mister's "Broken Wings" to the hit "We Don't Need Another Hero" made famous by Tina Turner resound in timeless jazzy beauty.

Nils Landgren

For the words versatility and curiosity, there is a synonym: Nils Landgren. Virtuosically, "Mr. Red Horn" navigates from perspective to perspective, partly because he thrives on constant change. Two souls reside in his chest: When the audience experiences him with his "Funk Unit," the Swede reveals his distinctive, relentlessly groovy side and becomes the jazz action hero. But there's also a very gentle, melancholic, highly sentimental Nils Landgren. This side of him emerges, for example, during the Advent season when the instrumentalist and singer celebrates "Christmas With My Friends," or in his ballad projects. On the trombone, he intones with unparalleled smoothness, and his uniquely textured, fragile voice touches the heart and soul with its sensitivity.
