“The soft strokes of his guitar melt away while delivering lyrical melodies one moment and creating fire in the heart of his audience the next. At his frequent live appearances, Janzon captivates everyone and won’t let go.” All About Jazz
On 25 October, Swedish guitarist Tomas Janzon will perform at MASA together with double bassist Yuriy Natsvlishvili and a drummer (TBA). The program will feature Janzon’s original compositions — lyrical, thoughtful and melodic jazz with flowing lines, classical influences and a distinctive personal style.

Born in Stockholm, Janzon first played recorder and cello before dedicating himself fully to the guitar. He studied with Joe Diorio and at USC Thornton in Los Angeles, developing a voice that unites classical depth, jazz freedom and melodic sensitivity. Performing across the US, Europe and Scandinavia, his albums have gained critical acclaim, while his concerts captivate audiences everywhere.
