Henrik Schwarz

A concert by the duo of Norwegian pianist Bugge Wesseltoft and German producer and DJ Henrik Schwarz, presented as part of the Expansions Festival at the 229 venue in London.

Bugge Wesseltoft is a Norwegian pianist, composer and producer, born in 1964 in Porsgrunn, who has been active since 1983 and moves between jazz and electronica. Henrik Schwarz is a German deep house producer and DJ, born in 1972 in Bergatreute, whose first album, Leave My Head Alone Brain, appeared in 2005. The two musicians work together as a duo, combining Wesseltoft's piano playing and improvisation with Schwarz's electronic rhythms and production. Their collaborative album Duo was released in 2011 on Jazzland Recordings, the label Wesseltoft founded. The partnership later grew into the trio Wesseltoft Schwarz Berglund, with bassist Dan Berglund, whose albums include Trialogue (2014) and Duo II (2016).

The concert is part of the Expansions Festival programme and takes place at 229, a concert venue on Great Portland Street in central London.
