Jakob Bro, Thomas Knak, Jesper Zeuthen, Nikolaj Hess, Hess is More + more essential CpH Jazz Festival shows 2012

Copenhagen Jazz Festival is Denmarks biggest annual jazz celebration. During 06-15 july  and around 1000 concerts. Yes, it sounds nearly too much. Parallel to the Copenhagen Festival there is also Valby Summer Jazz Festival. Valby Jazz is created by the Danish jazz player and creator Benjamin Koppel and his Cowbell Records crew.The chance at you get pretty jazzed is obvious, but it only happens once a year, and the music is fantastic. So don't worry, just get yourself into it, enjoy the music.
