Musician

Torben Westergaard

Born:

MUSICIAN, COMPOSER, MUSIC TEACHER EDUCATOR

Music brings us in touch with our feelings and closer together as human beings. I find it the most meaningful activity I can occupy myself with and what I have been pursuing for more than 40 years.

As a musician and composer, I am interested in exploring music broadly, creatively, and mindfully using the moment as the point of departure.

I have published 17 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

Three Short Trips with Torben Westergaard

Read "Three Short Trips with Torben Westergaard" reviewed by Geno Thackara

Torben Westergaard: The Gori Project II

Read "The Gori Project II" reviewed 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

Read "Jazz Brazil" reviewed 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 ...
