Swing, jazz and blues - Dance to the music

Rémi Toulon, a jazz pianist from France, played in the John Högman International Group at Uppsala Winter Swing.

With a combination of skill and luck I had the fortune to have front row seats at both their sets. Watching them was really a treat because this, I think, is jazz at its best. Talented musicians that communicate so well with eachother, trading ideas and really listening to eachother. A clever and witty conversation set to music. It swung!

In the group were also: Laurence Allison (song), Ulf Johansson Werre (trombone), Thomas Arnesen (guitar), Martin Sjöstedt (bass) and Calle Rasmusson (drums).

Did you also see this group at the jazz festival? What did you think? Tell me.
