Daniel Herskedal

Daniel Herskedal is a musician and composer of extraordinary ability who is pushing the boundaries of his instrument to the limit. His music ebbs and flows with utter grace and poise, perfectly fusing the spirit of jazz with the compositional craft of classical music. Seldom do you hear a musician with such depth, emotive intensity and virtuosity shine whilst simultaneously pushing the boundaries of his instrument to the limit. The cinematic scope of his music is obvious in the way he conjures landscapes in his compositions (as is evident in his elemental series of albums Slow Eastbound Train, The Roc, Voyage, Call for Winter and Harbour) and has led to his work on soundtracks, alongside his latest album ‘Out of the Fog’ featuring singer and songwriter Emilie Nicolas, which is out in October 2022.
