Jan Lundgren

Jan Lundgren is part of an impressive and long tradition of star pianists from Sweden, including Jan Johansson, who tragically passed away early, and more recently, Bobo Stenson and Esbjörn Svensson. Lundgren has never taken the easy path in life and has always strived to improve his incredible technique and advance his music. His ability to forge the most diverse music styles into a fascinating whole is extraordinary in itself. Whether it's contemporary classical music, Nordic folk traditional music, pulsating, groovy jazz, or African-American music, Lundgren finds a unique way to take the listener on a journey of discovery with his highly individual sonic landscapes - sometimes relaxing, sometimes utterly invigorating.
