Trondheim Jazzfest is immensely proud to present Jan Garbarek Group feat. Trilok Gurtu as the official opening concert for the 2022 festival edition!

Jan Garbarek could arguably be considered one of the style-setting musicians of European Jazz. And this has held true for the last fifty years. Countless musicians worldwide have been influenced by the sound of this Norwegian Saxophonist, often described as hymnal, lyrical, vocal, ethereal, meditative and certainly Scandinavian. Instead of resting on it - and contrary to his self-declared idleness - Jan Garbarek still strives at age 71 for new and better musical experiences, preferably live in concert.
