At the annual tribute concert at Cirkus this year we celebrate Monica's international side a little extra as the jazz sensation she was. Her collaborations with Bill Evans, Thad Jones and others are interpreted by our international artists Benny Benack III and Sinne Eeg. However, we also promise fine selections from the Swedish repertoire from her collaborations with Beppe Wolgers, Hasse & Tage and Povel Ramel.

We also highlight that it was 20 years since Monica left us and moved into the eternal jazz heaven and thus it is also the 20th anniversary since the Monica Zetterlund Society was created. We remember her and celebrate her as our Swedish jazz sensation!

Traditionally, during the concert we also award our Monica Zetterlund scholarships as well as our humor prize, Årets Filur, which this year goes to Mia Skäringer.

Featuring: Benny Benack III – trumpet & vocals (US) Sinne Eeg – vocals (DK)
