ABOUT NIELS LAN DOKY

When the world-renowned Danish jazz pianist and composer Niels Lan Doky released his debut album back in 1986, the American writer Dan Morgenstern wrote: “There is nothing more encouraging and satisfying than to encounter for the first time a young Jazz musician of real stature, someone who can make you feel that the future of the music is in good hands. There can not be the slightest doubt that Doky’s talent is of real significance - that rare thing in the Jazz of our time, an original voice in the great tradition”. Since then, Niels Lan Doky has released 44 albums, been called “the best pianist of his generation” and continues to have one of the most extensive and unusual careers ever seen in music, which - aside from performing, arranging, composing and producing music - also has included work as a film director, author, venue owner, speaker and more. He was Knighted by Her Majesty Queen Margrethe II of Denmark in 2010, has given a TEDx talk, performed for Pope Jean Paul II at the Vatican, and has appeared on bestseller lists in Europe and Asia.

In 2022, for the first time since corona, Niels Lan Doky has been able to resume extensive international tours and the demand has been overwhelming. Doky has been touring most of the summer 2022 around Europe with Billy Cobham, Randy Brecker, Bill Evans and Linley Marthe as the Modern Standards Supergroup. In addition, he had an comprehensive European tour with Darryl Jones, Harvey Mason and Bill Evans as the Jazz/Takes Supergroup in the fall of 2022 and will once again be on the road in the spring of 2023 with Harvey Mason, Bill Evans and Felix Patorius.
