Benjamin Koppel, Danish saxophonist and composer, is one of the most award-winning musicians of his generation, known for his versatility and virtuosity. Also a renowned composer, Koppel is the grandson of noted Danish classical composer Herman D. Koppel. His father, Anders Koppel, is a well-known and successful Hammond organ player and a composer…the family is full of music and creativity.
The prizes Benjamin has won so far include the Palæ Bars Jazz Prize, the Jacob Gade Prize, Holstebro Music Prize, and others. He was also named Knight of France, Chevalier des Arts et des Lettres in 2011 for his musical work.
Koppel has released more than 60 albums as a jazz soloist along with some of the biggest international jazz names, including Joe Lovano, Kenny Werner, Charlie Mariano, Daniel Humair, Phil Woods, Alex Riel, Larry Goldings, Randy Brecker, Peter Erskine…and many, many others. Koppel has collaborations with a number of high-class classical soloists, including Katrine Gislinge, Michala Petri, Henrik Dam Thomsen, Inger Dam Jensen, and others. His saxophone can be heard on a large number of albums, including Moonjam (the best selling Scandinavian instrumental band with several multiple platinum albums to their credit), Danseorkestret, Rugsted & Kreutzfeldt, Maria Montell, Marie Carmen Koppel, Hanne Boel, Alberte Winding, Sanne Salomonsen and soundtracks for several feature films, documentaries, cartoons and ballets.
He has jazz groups and plays classical, pop, R&B, folkloric music and almost anything in between. As a composer, he writes in those genres and is not afraid to take on large scale projects and compose music for theatre, put together two festival programs per year and write a book whenever there is a break.
Since 2012 Benjamin has been member of the trio Koppel-Colley-Blade Collective together with bassist Scott Colley and drummer Brian Blade. Their new album “Perspective” is out now wherever you listen to music. Listen to the album and find out more at https://benjaminkoppel.com/
