Torben Westergaard
Born:
MUSICIAN, COMPOSER, MUSIC TEACHER EDUCATOR
Music connects us with our feelings and brings us closer as human beings. I find it the most meaningful activity I can engage in and have pursued it for over 40 years. As a musician and composer, I am interested in exploring music broadly, creatively, and mindfully, using the moment as my starting point. I have released 20 albums of my compositions, two of which were DMA-jazz-nominated in 2013 and 2014. Music has taken me to more than 20 countries, and I have composed for various ensembles, TV series, documentaries, and commercials. Between 2011 and 2014, I had the privilege of serving as the musical director for the legendary Danish singer-songwriter and film director Søren Kragh-Jacobsen.

Torben Westergaard: The Gori Project II
by Geno Thackara
Sometimes an experience is too special and rewarding to simply leave as a one-off. If it requires traveling 8,300 kilometers across the hemisphere, then maybe you cannot continue making it a habit as regular as popping off to the pub on weekends, but the right repeat can still be worth the effort, even if it takes ...
Torben Westergaard: Jazz Brazil
by Geno Thackara
For Torben Westergaard, sooner or later all roads lead back to Brazil. The special flavor of South American jazz shaped his life from an early age, and has stayed a recurring staple in his music from his debut Brazilian Heart (Self Produced, 1996) through the Tangofied (Gateway) series of 2013-17. If it's taken him a while ...
