The Jazzhus Montmartre, which from 1961 to 1976 attracted most of the world’s great jazz musicians, is to reopen in Copenhagen in May under the leadership of the Danish jazz pianist Nils Lan Doky.
Montmartre, as it was known, became synonymous with the global jazz scene, attracting not only a wide range of European jazz artists, but also a bevy of Americans such as Dexter Gordon, Ben Webster, Kenny Drew, Stan Getz, Bud Powell and Oscar Pettiford, several of whom moved to Copenhagen.
