Paradise Jazz: Lea Foxman + Toftemark/Fryland Quartet | Copenhagen Jazz Festival

The 21-year-old vocalist Lea Foxman is quickly making her mark as a new addition to the Danish jazz scene.
Her interest in rhythmic music began after seven years of education in the classical tradition, and it wasn't long before she was studying singing, fronting several youth big bands and creating her own projects. Tonight, she has teamed up with some of the country's finest musicians, and together they will offer a wide-ranging repertoire.

"For me, Lea is one of the greatest new singing talents in Danish jazz. Her vocal control and harmonic understanding are in a class of their own, and her improvisations always make one's ears prick up. At the same time, she is a skilled composer and lyricist who has written strong and moving lyrics for several of my compositions." - Mathias Heise
