2005, Danish-born Jens Winther
has been a professional trumpeter
and composer for 30 years. Now

His quintet plays straight-ahead
contemporary jazz with fire and
drive, and is celebrated across
Europe for their passion and
technique. The band includes

reminds us of Miles Davis and Chet
Baker when they are at their
best!” –Politiken
