Experience Emil Brandqvist Trio live on November 9th

The Emil Brandqvist Trio will perform at the Evangelische Kirche in Saarburg, Germany on November 9, 2026. The trio is a Swedish jazz ensemble known for its distinctive blend of traditional jazz sensibilities with elements of Scandinavian folk music and contemporary improvisation. Pianist Emil Brandqvist leads the group, alongside bassist Lars Danielsson and drummer Johan Löfcrantz, creating a sound characterized by lyrical melodies, intricate interplay, and a spacious harmonic palette. Their performances often feature both original compositions and reimagined standards.

The Evangelische Kirche (Protestant Church) in Saarburg is a historically significant building constructed in the Gothic Revival style during the late 19th century, specifically between 1888-1890. It was built on the site of a medieval predecessor church and replaced an earlier Baroque structure deemed too small for the growing congregation. The church features a prominent spire and stained-glass windows depicting biblical scenes. Beyond its religious function, the Evangelische Kirche serves as a cultural venue hosting concerts and other community events, benefitting from its notable acoustics. The building represents an important part of Saarburg’s architectural heritage and continues to be an active place of worship.
