MODERN STANDARDS SUPERGROUP

ALL TIME JAZZ GREATS TAKE ON THE BIGGEST POP HITS OF TODAY

This Spring 2021, the Niels Lan Doky International Jazz Collective embarks on an exceptional and ambitious concert hall tour of Denmark from April 30th to May 2nd with a project entitled MODERN STANDARDS SUPERGROUP. The tour covers Aarhus, Copenhagen and Holbæk, and features an international stellar cast of musicians that includes three of America’s greatest jazz legends of all time Billy Cobham, Randy Brecker, and Bill Evans, in addition to the French bass virtuoso François Moutin, and the knighted Danish jazz pianist Niels Lan Doky. MODERN STANDARDS SUPERGROUP will take on the biggest pop hits of today and approach them as modern jazz standards, including songs by The Weeknd, Billie Eilish, Anderson Paak, Dua Lipa, Justin Bieber, Miley Cyrus, Black Eyed Peas, Shakira and the likes.

The April 30 concert at Musikhuset Aarhus’ Symphonic Hall will be a part of the United Nation’s International Jazz Day celebration and will be live-streamed globally in collaboration with UNESCO, The Herbie Hancock Institute, and the International Jazz Day headquarters in Washington. The tour culminates on May 2nd at the iconic Tivoli Concert Hall in Copenhagen and in between, the supergroup makes a stop in Holbæk on May 1st for a special concert there hosted by Holbæk Jazzklub, one of Denmark's oldest and most prolific jazz presenters.
