Experience Nordkraft Big Band's conductor, the American saxophonist and composer Remy Le Boeuf, as we welcome the concert year 2024.

The concert is free for students and individuals under 18. (Free admission is granted at the entrance, as long as there are available tickets)

He is younger than the typical conductors, but he has already made a significant impact in the world of jazz.

Remy Le Boeuf is a saxophonist and composer originally from a classical background, but has since explored the realms of jazz. His music is rooted in jazz tradition while simultaneously infiltrating the realms of modern classical music and indie rock.

With his debut release for jazz orchestra, "Assembly of Shadows" (2019), Le Boeuf marked himself as a unique voice with a penchant for cinematic, majestic, and melody-driven themes. He was praised by the New York Times for the "overwhelming beauty" of his music and quickly earned two Grammy nominations the following year for Best Instrumental Composition and Best Arrangement. In 2021, he released a complementary sequel, "Architecture of Storms" (2021), showcasing his acrobatic saxophone playing while exploring the diversity of his emotions and influences.

Featuring: Nordkraft Big Band and Remy Le Boeuf (conductor + soloist).

The concert is supported by Spar Nord Fonden, Aalborg Kommune, and Statens Kunstfond.
