Helle Henning Quartet - Summer Jazz Series

Scandinavia House was created by the American-Scandinavian Foundation to be the leading center for Nordic culture in the United States. It offers a wide range of programs that include exhibitions, film series, concerts and other performances, readings, lectures, language courses, and activities for kids.

Scandinavia House

Our popular Summer Jazz Series returns to Scandinavia House! This summer we’re presenting performances from some of Scandinavia’s most talented young jazz musicians, composers, and singers on Thursday evenings, June 7 through July 19. Join us for a reception on the Volvo Hall terrace starting at 6:30 PM, followed by the concert at 7 PM.
Helle Henning, a quartet featuring Danish vocalist and songwriter Helle Henning with musicians Simon Linnert on piano, Tony Scherr on bass, and Kenny Wollesen on drums, explores and bridges the worlds of American jazz and new Nordic jazz folk music through intense musical expression. All songs are written by Henning.
"Helle Henning's expression is timeless, yet very present in our era. It's Nordic, melancholy and very jazzy...original and classy." (Jazz News DK)
