"Radiant." If one word describes both the music and the personality of Jacob Karlzon, it's this one. He doesn't concern himself much with questions about which genre to assign his music to. He prefers to call it "improvised instrumental music" and joyfully and tastefully draws from the best of two worlds—the openness, experimentation, and energy of jazz and the power and catchiness of pop.
