Elastisk og frisættende kombinerer den gambisk-fødte kora-innovatør Dawda Jobarteh sit sublime strengespil med vestafrikanske melodier, jazz og nordisk eftertænksomhed. Vi glæder os til at præsentere det nyeste projekt fra Jobarteh, når han indtager ALICE under Vinterjazz i trioformation med den norske trommeslager og vokalist Siv Øyunn Kjenstad og jazzpianist Nikolaj Svaneborg.

Den herboende gambiske musiker Dawda er født ind i griot-familien Jobarteh, som i generationer har været musikere og historiebærere. Hans sublime strengespil på den harpelignende kora vidner om, at han holder sin musikalske arv tæt på sig. Samtidig er han kendt for at udforske koraen i relation til nye og moderne klangmuligheder, hvor han blander vestafrikanske traditioner, jazz, rock, elektroniske effekter og nordiske klange. Dawda Jobarteh har indgået i utallige samarbejder på den danske musikscene, bl.a. med Pierre Dørge, Stefan Pasborg, CTM og mange flere.
Dawda Jobarteh har givet utallige koncerter på ALICE, solo såvel som i forskellige konstellationer. Til denne koncert optræder han i en ny trioformation med to stærke musikfæller: Den norske trommeslager og vokalist Siv Øyunn Kjenstad – en kreativ multikunstner, som spillede udsolgt koncert på ALICE sidste år – og Nikolaj Svaneborg på synths og keyboards, kendt fra duoen Svaneborg Kardyb. Sammen skaber trioen et musikalsk univers som rummer både tradition og fornyelse, puls, varme, organiske klange og fælles musikalitet. Vi glæder os til at præsentere Dawda Jobarteh feat. Øyunn & Svaneborg under Vinterjazz.

ENGLISH:
Barbro’s raw and intimate alt-pop songs have established them as one of the most progressive voices on the Danish music scene. With their new album, the Copenhagen-based musician invites us into a sonic space where personal stories, global tremors, and layered sound collages intertwine into one living, porous whole. In February, Crossfade will be performed live for the very first time, when Barbro plays their release concert at ALICE.
With an elastic and liberating approach, the Gambia-born kora innovator Dawda Jobarteh blends his exquisite string work with West African melodies, jazz, and a distinctly Nordic sense of reflection. We are excited to present Jobarteh’s latest project when he takes over ALICE during Vinterjazz, performing in a trio with Norwegian drummer and vocalist Siv Øyunn Kjenstad and jazz pianist Nikolaj Svaneborg.
The Denmark-based Gambian musician Dawda was born into the Jobarteh griot family, whose members have for generations served as musicians and bearers of oral history. His refined playing on the harp-like kora shows how deeply he carries this musical heritage. At the same time, he is known for pushing the instrument into new and modern sonic territories, blending West African traditions with jazz, rock, electronic effects, and Nordic soundscapes. Over the years, Dawda Jobarteh has collaborated widely on the Danish music scene, including with Pierre Dørge, Stefan Pasborg, CTM, and many others.
Dawda Jobarteh has performed at ALICE numerous times, both solo and in various ensembles. For this concert, he appears in a new trio formation with two strong musical companions: Norwegian drummer and vocalist Siv Øyunn Kjenstad – a creative multi-artist who played a sold-out show at ALICE last year – and Nikolaj Svaneborg on synths and keyboards, known from the duo Svaneborg Kardyb. Together, they create a musical universe that embraces both tradition and innovation, pulse, warmth, organic textures, and shared musicality. We look forward to presenting Dawda Jobarteh feat. Øyunn & Svaneborg during Vinterjazz.
