Lage Lund Trio

  • Firehouse 12 45 Crown Street New Haven CT 06510 (map)

Lage Lund (guitar); Will Vinson (saxophone); Orlando le Fleming (bass)

Firehouse 12 is pleased to welcome guitarist and composer Lage Lund and his trio featuring saxophonist Will Vinson and bassist Orlando le Fleming.

Lund has been called a “casually magnetic” presence on the stage, “channeling reticence into a whisper-quiet mystique” (New York Times). His latest album's "provocative music is marked by a variety of musical and emotional contrasts: beautiful melodies versus sometimes noisy electronic effects, hard-grooving fusion versus rootsy Americana-ish passages, open spaces versus artfully crowded acoustic-electric soundscapes" (Philip Booth, JazzTimes).

Norwegian-born Lund hit the ground running following his win at the 2005 Thelonious Monk Institute of Jazz International Guitar Competition. Praised publicly by such jazz-guitar icons as Pat Metheny and Kurt Rosenwinkel, Lund became a fixture of the Rising Star guitar category of the DownBeat Critics Poll, and he has appeared as a member of David Sánchez Quartet, Mark Turner Quartet, Seamus Blake Quintet, and on Maria Schneider Orchestra's 2017 Grammy winning "Thompson Field” - the title track being a feature for Lund.
