CWJO Performs with trombonist

Karin Hammar 

Stockholm based trombonist Karin Hammar had already notched up a long list of music references. Alongside tours and album releases with jazz stars like Kenny Werner, Tim Hagans, Steve Swallow, Gary Burton, and Maria Schneider, it was first and foremost Nils Landgren, her kinsman on both instrument and native country who nudged her into the spotlight for example as member of the Jazz Baltica Orchestra or the EBU Big Band.       

Six days of live jazz music featuring Calgary high school bands and international jazz trombone sensation Karin Hammar starts April 25 during our annual International Jazz Days Festival, a celebration of youth in jazz presented by CADME (Calgary Association for the Development of Music Education) in partnership with JazzYYC.   See here for all the details of her performances.
