Mads Tolling presents Cool Yule

The Sound Room is aptly named. The focus is on the sound or the music. Unlike clubs where the performance may be peripheral to the experience, at the Sound Room the performance is the experience.  We are an all-ages listening room. We exist to present great music and promote jazz as an art form.The Sound Room is the home of Bay Area Jazz & Arts, a  501(c)3 non-profit organization focused on promoting the Arts.

Old and New World traditions meld in Cool Yule starring renowned Danish jazz violinist Mads Tolling. The wonderful Christmas traditions of the Nordic countries—Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Iceland—are steeped in mysticism with many of these traditions at home here in America. We invite you to experience the warmth and specialness of hygge, the Danish word for cozy that sets the tone for ushering in the holiday season. In the spirit of Yule, two-time Grammy Award-Winner Mads Tolling shares the Christmas celebrations of his youth in Copenhagen, blending the authentic customs and sounds of the Nordic countries with the joy and spirit of American jazz. Cool Yule includes a special nod to Denmark’s most famous fairy-tale author Hans Christian Andersen and a salute to Julemanden (Santa Claus). Yuletide traditional classics and jazz renditions of your favorite American holiday songs include My Favorite Things, Santa Baby, Beautiful Savior, I Am So Glad Each Christmas Eve and the Louis Armstrong inspired title song, Cool Yule.Mads’ stellar quartet this evening:Mads Tolling – violin and octave violinColin Hogan – piano and accordionGary Brown – bassEric Garland – drumsDoors open 1 hour before the show.
