Anders Widmark

Anders Widmark has received two Swedish Grammy Awards. One of his songs has reached number one at the radio top chart list. At the age of seven Anders Widmark started to compose and improvise on the piano. Many people have been inspired by the piano playing of Anders Widmark. If he plays soul, blues, jazz or pop you will find a very personal imprint. According to the National Encyclopedia he was also “one of the first in Sweden at the beginning of 1990 to mix jazz with hip hop”. “I first heard Anders in 1999 and was knocked out by his playing. I’ve followed his playing ever since and have never failed to be impressed by the range of his talent. He’s among the great pianists of our time.” – Stuart Nicholson (acclaimed author, critic and journalist, who has contributed to many leading news papers and magazines, including the New York Times, The London Times, Jazz Times and others.)
