Gunde on Garner

about

Henrik Gunde Pedersen – Danish pianist and keyboardist – b. July 22, 1969 in Esbjerg, Denmark. Performed with Prize Winner Aldo Romano's JAZZPAR Quintet + 1 at the Event 2004. Henrik Gunde graduated as jazz pianist from Vestjysk Music Conservatory. Lately he has established himself as one of the most sought-after sidemen on the Danish jazz scene. Gunde can be heard on many Danish CD releases. He holds a position in the Tivoli Big Band. He has played with The Danish Radio Big Band, The Orchestra, Lisa Nilsson, Fredrik Lundin, Katrine Madsen, Billy Cobham, Jimmy Heath and Tom Harrell. Since 1994 the Henrik Gunde Trio has focused on the extrovert style of legendary pianist Erroll Garner. Gunde has “big ears” and “burns” for the music. GUNDE ON GARNER - alias pianist Henrik Gunde, bassist Nicolas Kock and drummer Steen Holm – have been together since 1995. The trio’s music has always defined itself through the world of Erroll Garner. They have adapted the late piano master’s swinging and extroverted style as their own, and performed a repertoire almost exclusively consisting of original Garner arrangements. In recent years, however, we have experienced the trio playing their own arrangements of Danish and foreign songs in Garner’s spirit. Following in Garner’s footsteps, they utilize any good tune regardless of its original idiom, be it a pop, jazz or rock song. Garner put his personal fingerprints and uniquely characteristic swing on whatever he played. This CD features tunes
