TEN DAYS OF JAZZ G2, G4-7

G2 6 - 12 July 2012InOut | THE CPH POST ENTERTAINMENT GUIDETHIS WEEK

Valby Summer JazzPrøvehallen, Porcelænstorvet, 2500 Valby & Betty Nansen Theatre, Edis-onvej 10, 1856 Frederiksberg, starts Friday, ends 14 July; tickets: 100-230kr, www.billetlugen.dk; www.valbysum-merjazz.com

FOR THE FIRST two weeks of July, the sleepy Copenhagen suburb of Valby will be the gathering point for � nger-clicking, cool-cat jazz a� cionados, as Valby Summer Jazz brings the exclusive New York jazz scene to these shores. Experience top names from the New York Blue Note Jazz Club at 22 concerts over ten days mixed with the best of Danish jazz, as well as late-night concerts with local rappers, DJs and other great musicians.

� e festival, organised by the Danish vir-tuoso saxophonist and composer Benjamin Koppel and the prominent American pi-ano player Kenny Werner, takes place every year at the same time as the Copenhagen Jazz Festival. Within a few years it has es-tablished itself as one of Northern Europe’s most distinguished jazz festivals. Artists meet in unique ensembles that � nd new ways to blend, merge and rethink genres and sounds in jazz. � e festival has taken on a New York concert style with two 80-minute concerts of no-breaks world-class music.

Alongside established Danish artists such as Benjamin Koppel, organist Anders Kop-pel and drummer Jakob Andersen, come an impressive array of the hippest international stars.

Drummer Brian Blade – who has worked together with names such as Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan and Herbie Hancock – will be here with the Brian Blade Fellowship on 8 July. Look out too, for percussionist Johna-than Blake and his incredible drums solos.

Lee Konitz, one of the driving forces of Cool Jazz, is an experimental alto saxophon-ist who has released a number of avant-garde jazz albums. Even at the age of 84, he man-ages to sound fresher than ever and is much sought-after by younger musicians. Randy Brecker is a versatile American trumpeter and � ugelhornist who has worked with names such as Charles Mingus, Bruce Springsteen, Lou Reed, Frank Zappa and Parliament. � e concert on Monday night (9 July) promises to be a true masterclass.

World-class guitarists at the festival in-clude the legendary Jim Hall (Tuesday 10 July) and Julian Lage (Sunday 8 July). Hall is a guitarist who has been in vogue for seven decades. Described as the father of modern

jazz guitar, Hall changed the way jazz guitar sounded with his innovation, composition, and improvisation. Meanwhile, Lage, one of the most amazing jazz guitar talents in the world, is a former child prodigy whose � ying � ngers and jazz stylings will leave you dis-tinctly breathless and overwhelmed.

Scott Colley is a proli� c American jazz double bassist, featuring on over 200 record-ings to date. His remarkably empathetic skills, strong melodic sense and improvi-sational abilities have served him well in groups. In more recent years his skills as bandleader and composer have come into focus. � e Czech founding bassist of the ground and soundbreaking Weather Report, Miroslav Ladislav Vitouš, is known for his strong rhythmic sense, innovative walking lines, and intensity and abandon as an im-proviser. Catch him together with Benjamin Koppel on Saturday (7 July).

American jazz pianist Kenny Werner possesses a natural improvisational ability. His groundbreaking work on Improvisation - E� ortless Mastery – Liberating the Master Musician Within has inspired a generation of musicians and artists. He will be performing throughout the festival with di� erent ensem-bles.

Closer to home, Marie Carmen Koppel is Denmark’s queen of soul and, on Wednes-day (11 July), will perform the repertoire from her acclaimed � rst jazz release, on � e Brooklyn Sessions.

A popular and emotional concert is sure to be one of the eclectic Bazaar’s last ever performances. Featuring the talents of An-ders Koppel (hammond organ), Peter Bas-tian (clarinet), and Flemming Quist Møller (percussion), the band has been part of the Danish jazz scene for almost 40 years, but is now set to break up at the end of the year.

Whatever you do, don’t forget your dancing shoes for the exuberant Mames Ba-bagenush on 14 July. It will be where the past meets the present as Jewish dance music is united with new waves of modern music – a fresh blend of musical genres that appeals to both the heart and the feet.

While Avishai Cohen (trumpet) and Omer Avital (bass), who are performing on 13 July, are both familiar � gures on the New York scene where they regularly thrill audiences at the Big Apple’s many famous jazz clubs.

� e � nal Friday and Saturday late nights (13 and 14 July) are aimed at the younger generation with current artists like Al Agami, Pede B and Shaka Loveless mixing it up with Denmark’s incredibly gifted Koppel family in over two nights of amazing improvised hip-hop, electronica, rap and dancehall.

� ere comes a time in every music lover’s life when jazz takes over the senses – why wait? Valby Summer Jazz is guaranteed to release your inner hipster, � ipster and � nger poppin’ daddio. Be there or be square.

Why should central Copenhagen have all the fun?

inside this week

GIVEN OUR Danish-centric interest in news, I’m not sure we would have been able to use “� e reign of Spain falls gamely in Ukraine”, even if the Italians had narrowly triumphed in Sun-day’s Euro 2012 � nal, but that’s the thing about good headlines – they often depend on the un-expected. Like the time Inver-ness Caledonian � istle beat Celtic – a shock result that pro-duced “Super Caley go ballistic, Celtic are atrocious”.

Coming up with that head-line in the early, waking hours of Monday morning was my subconscious mind’s way of dealing with the loss that the end of a major football cham-pionship brings. But it needn’t have bothered – after all, what did Freud know? With Wim-bledon climaxing this weekend, the British Open laying it on in a fortnight, and the Olympics coming at the end of the month, we’re spoilt for sport this sum-mer.

Really, I sometimes wonder what I’d do without it. � en again, it hasn’t always been this way for armchair sports specta-tors. Go back 90 years, and the Olympics was a jolly for to� s and the World Cup a mere glint in Jules Rimet’s eye. Now I un-derstand why jazz became so popular then – anything to es-cape the boredom of the ‘roar-ing’ 1920s.

So it’s kind of interesting to see it emerging now the foot-ball’s over in the shape of Valby Summer Jazz (see G2 for details) and the Copenhagen Jazz Festi-val, to which we are dedicating four full pages this week (G4-7): a full run-down, or as much as we can do to cover ten days and almost a thousand concerts at 100-odd venues.

But as much as the people of this city love jazz, they love their summerhouses more. For the rest of the month, it will be like the day after the Day of the Tri  ds every single day. And to re� ect this mood, page G9 for the next � ve weeks will be run-ning travel features, including trips to Oslo (which kicks o� proceedings this week), Sweden, and even one to Asia.

Who said we only had a Danish-centric interest in things?

AFTER DIAMONDS, cocktails are probably a girl’s best friend. And cocktails are what Karri-ere Bar does best. Tucked into a converted slaughterhouse in Kød-byen, the meatpacking district, the restaurant has held onto some remnants from its bloodier days. Hooks in the ceiling are a silent reminder of what it was once used for, though the brightly-lit, spacious room is no longer a site of carnage but a bustling room where the sounds of countless conversations blend in and out with music provided by the house DJ-producer duo, Traplite.

Walking into Karriere Bar is like entering a modern art exhi-bition. After taking a few seconds to adjust to the dimmed lighting, your eyes will fall upon a long metallic bar, chairs that look like they should have ‘Do Not Sit’ placards hanging o� them, and lightbulbs draped over oval sheets of metal hanging low over colour-ful wooden tables.

comed immediately as we were led to our table and seated on the forbidding chairs (which were ac-tually quite comfortable).

As we pored over the menus, a bowl containing two pieces of warm, dark rye bread baked in the shape of cupcakes appeared at our table, accompanied by a slate slab with a cold chunk of salty butter. We placed our orders: my dining partner opted for the Roasted duck breast with baked rhubarb and wasabi and a side of quinoa salad with fresh cucumber, melon and mint. Dining out as a vegetarian in Denmark is tough, especially if, like me, you don’t eat � sh. � is ruled out all the starters and mains for me, so I chose two side dishes. I went for the same Quinoa salad as my partner, and new potatoes with parsley butter. I ordered the Voyeur Baby cock-tail to accompany my meal, while my partner had the Red Cow.

� e drinks arrived � rst, in tall, frosty glasses � lled to the brim and topped with moun-tains of ice. Mine came without a straw, and our waitress told me it was so that I could “get the full experience” by sipping from the glass. She was right – the celery ice on top of fresh apple juice mixed with lime, mint and green chartreuse was delicious, and a re-freshing start to the night ahead. � e Red Cow was just as good.

kick, and the heat of the ginger and aquavit clashed perfectly with the cool drink.

� en came the food. My partner described the duck as an orgasm in her mouth. � e wasabi complemented the duck, and its slight toughness forced her to eat it slowly, savouring each mouth-ful. � e graininess of the quinoa, paired with crunchy cucumber and juicy melon, created a novel fusion of textures. � e potatoes were warm and cooked just right, served in a small bowl swimming in melted butter ­ avoured with parsley.

Next, it was time for more cocktails, this time with dessert. � ere were two desserts on the menu, so we ordered both. � e SHANDANA MUFTI

waitresses were ready with sugges-tions, helping us choose drinks to enrich the ­ avours of our desserts. Rhubarb rhubarb rhubarb was a creamy pudding and a small cake, topped with foam – all rhubarb, of course. � e pudding was cold and creamy, and was comple-mented by the slight acidity of the foam. � is dessert was paired with the Rhubarb Collins cock-tail. � e � zziness and the fresh aftertaste of strawberries made it one I’ll be craving all summer, and eating the alcohol-infused strawberries was a scrumptious treat.

� e other dessert, Carrot orange & kisses, was carrot ice cream served with meringue wa-fers and a small orange tart driz-

zled with a tangy orange sauce. � e ice cream had a pleasant, dis-tinctly carrotty taste. � is came with Buck’s Rum Cup, an orange and rum cocktail with almond ­ avouring. � ough rum was the dominant ­ avour, berries and or-ange rounded o� each gulp.

� e last cocktail. � is time, we decided to be adventurous and chose the keyword cocktails. You choose three words from choice of aromatic or refreshing, strong or weak, dark spirit or light spirit – and a bartender whips up a drink. I chose aromatic, strong and light spirit, and ended up with a drink called � e Journalist. Boy, was it strong – the mix of gin, orange liq-uor and sweet and dry vermouth caught me o� -guard.

While the prices at Karri-ere Bar & Restaurant may seem daunting at � rst, a three-course menu with cocktails for 345kr is a great deal, and with food and drinks as mouth-watering as these, it’s worth every penny. At 22:00, the music goes up in prep-aration of the night ahead, and the bar is overrun with 20-some-things downing drinks and ­ irt-ing with bartenders.

It’s the ideal place to eat and drink summer nights away with a group of close friends, while speakers thump out heavy bass lines and the sun never quite sets in the distance.

Ten days and as many reasons to cancel your holidaysWhen jazz takes over2012 Copenhagen Jazz Festival Various venues across Cph; starts Friday July 6, ends Sunday July 15; www.jazz.dk

CITIES HAVE a tendency to casually insert their name before the word ‘fes-tival’ to enjoy a branding boost. Yet at many major music festivals, the connec-tion between city and music is unseen, unfelt and marginalised to the outskirts. Several jewels may be displayed at cen-tral locations, some happy banners may proclaim a few famous artists, but the festival is largely unnoticed by the gen-eral public.

Copenhagen and its jazz festival are nothing like this norm.

Now in its 34th year of deliver-ing ten days of stunningly spectacular music and memories as one of the pre-eminent jazz festivals in the world, the Copenhagen Jazz Festival becomes jazz and jazz becomes the city.

From July 6 to July 15, more than 1,000 concerts will take place at over 100 venues, from sun-soaked cobblestoned streets to hallowed music halls. Several thousand jazz musicians will groove into the city, many staying a few extra days to listen to music and see old friends. Last year, over a quarter of a million people visited the city during the festival, join-ing locals in celebrating Copenhagen as the jazziest spot on the planet.

� e festival does a � ne job of o� er-ing a diverse array of choices for music lovers. � e two major themes are the ‘Concert Hall Series’ and ‘21st Century Jazz’ in which a majority of the head-liners play to packed houses at some of the city’s � nest venues. But it would be a mistake to assume that this is all the

jazz festival has to o� er. Free concerts abound, outdoors and indoors. � ere is ‘Jazz for Kids’; ‘...something else’; jazz at churches and ‘Jazz by the Sea’. It is a democratic festival where any club, café, public space, concert hall – pretty much any spot that can squeeze in a piano – can be a part of the festival.

� e Copenhagen Jazz Festival is like a free public utility, not a pro� t driven enterprise. It is funded by the state and private sponsors, and it provides a booster shot of jazz that enlivens the scene all year long.

� e creative mind behind the jazz festival, musical director Kenneth Hans-en, has worked hard to keep the spirit of jazz – balancing new trends with the 34 -yea-old festival’s original ideals. His programme is unique and wide-reach-ing, and he believes that jazz is good for you. “You can get inspired by the essence of jazz,” said Hansen. “Jazz is a life-style. Looking for new things, evolving, improvising, being open, going in new directions and also taking chances. It’s okay to fail – this is a big thing about jazz. Everyone and everything is so con-cerned about money, and I think jazz says to go for it, it’s okay to fail, you may � nd something along the way.”

� e best way to experience the festi-val? Grab the o� cial programme (150 pages of details and listings sold through-out the city), check online at www.jazz.dk, or download the festival’s o� cial app – and plan a few choice shows, but allow time to wander and spontaneously soak up a city immersed in jazz.

In addition to the main themes, here (see right) are a few choice festival selections.

Considered to be the country’s national stage of jazz, in recent years the Jazzhouse has become intimately entwined with the jazz festival – � rst receiving programming partnership, and just last year falling under the stewardship and direction of the fes-tival’s experienced general manager, Signe Lopdrup. � e collaboration is natural: the bright beacon of the jazz festival has found an anchor at the city’s foremost jazz club.

A great challenge was presented to this new partnership when monsoon-like rainfall poured down on the city on the second day of the 2011 Co-penhagen Jazz Festival. Concerts were delayed as � oods occurred in parts of the city after a deluge of more than 150mm (six inches) of water. After cancelling the concerts immediately after the storm, the Jazzhouse went on with their regular scheduled pro-gramme, but discovered after the fes-tival that the water damage was so se-

vere that a complete renovation would be required. � e doors reopened this June 1 to a refreshed club that lives up to its name as the country’s top place for its most beloved music.

“Everything has changed. We have moved the stage and have a new bar. It is a new room and a new experience,” said Lopdrup. “� e Jazzhouse is so im-portant for Copenhagen’s jazz scene. We think of ourselves as a cultural institution, presenting a modern and progressive Danish and international jazz scene in Copenhagen and becom-ing the primary jazz club in Scandina-via.”

Nothing has changed in the Jazzhouse’s programming, dubbed ‘21st Century Jazz’, during the jazz festival: it is still the top place to enjoy the best artists in the most intimate environment.

“We have booked a programme that is looking forward and not just celebrating the past,” said Lopdrup. “We want to make a statement with this programme at the festival. � is is jazz that is moving forward, not just how it once was.”

Read on (see right) for a top choice and a couple of highlights among the many great o� erings if your jazz dance card is � lling up quickly.

Taking it easy in a cool sea breeze

TOP PICKJoe Lovano/Dave Douglas QuintetSunday July 8 and Monday July 9, 21:00; 270krIt is a special opportunity to be able to see two of jazz’s � nest musicians and band leaders at such an intimate set-ting. Lovano and Douglas have each commanded concert halls and received plenty of recognition. Lovano has over 30 albums under his belt and won a Grammy award during his illustrious career, yet his saxophone remains as seductively powerful as they come. Douglas is innovative and fresh on the trumpet, garnering awards and recogni-tion from near and far. Together they lead a dynamic quintet for a two-night stay at the Jazzhouse that promises to be one of the festival’s best bets.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDEDAmbrose AkinmusireFriday July 6, 21:00; 180kr� at is the thing about the Jazzhouse – it attracts the best young musicians in the industry. It is never enough to just accept the credit handed out by the critics and merely listen to the artists’ albums – you need to be there in person to � nd out if a musician really has what it takes. Everyone says that Ambrose Akinmusire is the real deal and therefore his concert alongside his quintet is an anticipated event. � is 30-year-old trumpeter is on the rise, and catching him at the Jazzhouse this evening is a decision that you’ll look back at with pride.

Neneh Cherry and the � ingTuesday July 10, 21:00; 270kr� e singer Neneh Cherry achieved fame in the late ‘80s and early ‘90s for her forays into hip-hop and soul. In her musical career she has met and collaborated with artists in many spectrums, yet she returns to her jazz roots (her stepfather is the great cornetist Don Cherry) for a new collaboration with a Swedish/Norwegian jazz group, � e � ing. Together they have released an acclaimed album called � e Cherry � ing and their free jazz improvisations range from the music of Don Cherry to Ornette Coleman, to the Velvet Underground.

TOP PICKSinne EegKulturhuset Islands Brygge, Islands Brygge 18; Saturday July 7, 20:00; Tickets: 140kr, www.politikenbillet.www2.dkWith � ve albums to her name, Sinne Eeg is a well-loved � xture on Denmark’s jazz scene. � e singer has won several local awards, including ‘Best Jazz Vocal Album’ in 2007 and 2010 at the Danish Music Awards, and the ‘Danish Radio Jazz Award’ in 2009. Armed with a warm and expressive voice, and an impressive vocal range to boot, Eeg will impress jazz-goers with her onstage charisma and class.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDEDConcha Buika Kulturhuset Islands Brygge, Islands Brygge 18; Tuesday July 10, 20:00; Tickets: 180kr, www.politikenbillet.www2.dk� ough her heritage lies in Equatorial Guinea, Concha Buika draws on in� uences from her adopted Spanish home in her music. Growing up in Mallorca, the singer spent much of her time befriending gypsy families and making music with them. � ose musical in� uences are now evident in Buika’s com-positions, which tie in cante � amenco, coplas, soul and jazz. Recruiting a devoted fan-base following

the release of her 2005 self-titled debut, Buika has gone from strength to strength. Her latest album Mi Niña Lola won the award for ‘Best Produced Album’ at Spain’s most prestigious music awards, Premios de la Musica.

Ninety Miles (from Miami to Havana)Kulturhuset Islands Brygge, Islands Brygge 18; Wednesday July 11, 20:00; Tickets: 140kr, www.politikenbillet.www2.dkLike its name suggests, this performance celebrates the meeting of two musical cultures situated 90 miles apart from one another. Miami and Havana have a strong history – as many as 14,000 Cuban children were sent to Miami by their parents in the early 1960s – soon after Fidel Castro came to power. Combining jazz traditions from both countries, New Orleans-born trumpeter Nicholas Payton, Puerto Rican saxophonist David Sánchez, and New York vibraphonist Stefon Harris form a vibrant onstage partnership.

BLACK SERIES – from Detroit to LagosKulturhuset Islands Brygge, Islands Brygge 18; Thursday July 12, 20:00; Tickets: 180kr, www.politikenbillet.www2.dkTony Allen has had a big claim to fame. He has been referred to as the creator of the explosive musical subgenre: Afrobeat. � e gifted drummer has been perfecting his technique over the past four decades, honing a style that sends his audience into a frenzy that celebrates the joy of music. � is time the legend is featured alongside Detroit keyboardist, singer, songwriter and producer Joseph ‘Amp’ Fiddler.

Jazz by the SeaKulturhuset Islands Brygge, Islands Brygge 18, Cph S; tickets: 8233 4780, k-i-b@kff.kk.dk

THE SOUNDS of faraway coastlines will wash onto Denmark’s shores this July when the Co-penhagen Jazz Festival comes to town. � is year ‘Jazz by the Sea’ will explore music from every corner of the globe, featuring acts from Cuba, Africa and the United States to name a few. � e music in this category oozes feeling and delves

scendants, were talented percussionists. While they brought drums into the mix, the Spaniards added some � amenco � avour with the guitar and most importantly, European music nota-tion and composition techniques. In recent years, the music has drawn on in� uences from other musical genres and di� erent countries. But the exchange of ideas can go both ways, as seen in the work of the New Orleans’ Nicholas Payton, Puerto Rica’s David Sánchez and Amer-ica’s Stefon Harris (see listing below).

From Havana to another coastal city, La-

deep into the heart of some of these countries’ oppressive histories.

‘Ninety Miles (from Miami to Havana)’ is one performance that exempli� es the fusion of di� erent national jazz traditions, revealing the interconnectedness of jazz from the Car-ibbean, New Orleans and Cuba. Cuban jazz is commonly seen as a combination of Euro-pean and African culture, as the music was cre-ated largely by Spanish immigrants and African slaves brought to the island. � e Africans who worked on the sugar plantations, and their de-

gos, Tony Allen invites ‘Jazz by the Sea’ listen-ers along for a wonderful Afrobeat experience as he presents ‘Black Series – from Detroit to Lagos’ (details below). Afrobeat is a frenetic combination of jazz, highlife and the funky sounds of the ‘70s. � is frenetic style of music will transport those at the open air Kulturhuset to faraway Nigeria. No matter how much you loathe dancing in public, this brand of jazz is guaranteed to get your muscle � bres twitching to the beat.

G6 6 July - 12 July 2012InOut | THE CPH POST ENTERTAINMENT GUIDEG6 6 - 12 July 2012InOut | THE CPH POST ENTERTAINMENT GUIDESPECIAL SECTION: CPH JAZZ FESTIVAL

Wayne Shorter QuartetThe Royal Danish Theatre, Gamle Scene, Kongens Nytorv, Cph K; Tuesday July 10, 20:00; tickets 150-550kr, 3369 6969; www.kglteater.dk

THE COPENHAGEN Jazz Festival traditionally bestows the title of ‘Giant Jazz’ on a few choice concerts. � ough they have done away with this, their longest running theme, there’s one man who would have little problem carrying that mantle: the brilliant saxophonist and one of jazz’s greatest composers, Wayne Shorter.

Now 78, Shorter’s career has seen him perform with some of the most famous names in jazz’s great book. He grew up in Newark, New Jersey listen-ing to � elonious Park and Charlie Parker on the radio, and he would cut school to go and see Dizzy Gillespie and other jazz artists playing in New York. But it was not long until Shorter started etching his own name into jazz lore. He joined Art Blakey’s classic group, the Jazz Messengers, eventually becoming the group’s musical director. � e next stop was Miles Davis’s ‘second’ great quintet (after John Coltrane, that is), a

group that like the � rst became one of the most in� uential in jazz history. Da-vis called Shorter his “intellectual mu-sical catalyst”, and Shorter went on to compose some of Davis’s most famous numbers: ‘ESP’, ‘Nefertiti’, ‘Footprints’ and many others.

Shorter has played all over the spec-trum, creating his own spectrum along the way. He is a co-founder of the great fusion group, Weather Report, and he has recorded with both Joni Mitchell and Carlos Santana, yet still remains � ercely independent and interested in exploring music’s great depths.

Kenneth Hansen, the musical direc-tor of the Copenhagen Jazz Festival, is impressed by Shorter’s continued virtu-osity. “He has a very strong intuition,” he tells InOut. “He has become very condensed in his expression – so eve-rything he says is strong and very frail also. You feel like there is something in his tone that sounds like it is a struggle for him to say, but that he must say it. Like he is carving life’s truths into a tree when he is playing.”

Shorter has played the jazz festival a handful of times, most recently in 2008 at the new Opera House. � is year he is returning to Copenhagen’s most regal stage, the Royal Danish � eatre’s Gam-le Scene. Hansen, while acknowledg-ing that an evening of Wayne Shorter on the saxophone could never be bad,

thinks that this year’s setting is more ap-propriate for Shorter: “You will feel the music from the start, feel his tone – eve-rything will be more up close. It will be a more physical performance from the start.”

Casual jazz listeners may be sur-prised to discover just how many of Shorter’s compositions, both as a side-man and a bandleader, are standards of the genre.

As a bandleader, you can’t go wrong with two of his more recent albums (both of which are Grammy winners): Beyond the Soundbarrier and Alegria, while Speak No Evil and Juju, two es-sential classics from the 1960s, are also recommended, as is his work with Art Blakey – ‘� ree Blind Mice’ and ‘� e Big Beat’ – and Miles Davis: ‘E.S.P.’, ‘Miles Smiles’, ‘Nefertiti’ and ‘Bitches Brew’.

Shorter has su� ered tragedy in his life, losing his daughter to a seizure and later his wife and niece in a plane crash as they were � ying to see him perform. He spoke about the loss of his wife in a 1998 New York Times interview. “� ere’s a drive here,” Shorter said, pointing to his chest. “And it’s coming from her. When someone very close to you dies, a lot of people might cut o� what they’re doing or commit suicide or whatever. But eventually you start to listen to every � bre of life. � e eternity of life is revealed, and you’re celebrat-ing it through music rather than using your own life to celebrate music. My life is not music. I am not what I do, I do what I am.”

Shorter by name, but a giant of jazz

Concert Hall Events 2012Various venues in Cph K & C

THE MOST beautiful concert hall in the city, � e Royal � eatre Old Stage, and the city’s dynamic new space, Koncerthuset, are the settings for the jazz festival’s pre-miere theme: the Concert Hall Events Series.

Up until last year, the main theme, and the festival’s longest running theme, was called ‘Giant Jazz’. Artists such as Sonny Rol-lins, Ornette Coleman, Chick Corea, Herbie Hancock and Keith Jarrett have performed under this banner. However, the name itself has proven to be problematic as critics have questioned if the artists are ‘giant’ or ‘jazz’ enough.

Liberated from this label, mu-sical director Kenneth Hansen has

still pieced together a prestigious array of artists who brilliantly lead the festival’s programme. However Hansen has not followed in the di-rection of many other jazz festivals which have pop, rock or hip-hop artists as their headliners.

“It is important to believe in the great jazz names like Wayne Shorter, Sonny Rollins or Keith Jar-rett, and that they are the best you can present,” said Hansen. “You have to believe in this. If you start inviting pop and rock names, then they become the biggest thing, and the jazz names you should have be-lieved in become secondary. � e audience recognises that you don’t believe in it anymore, and the jazz festival is no longer a jazz festival.”

HIGHLY RECOMMENDEDBrad Mehldau TrioThe Royal Danish Theatre, Gamle Scene, Kongens Nytorv, Cph K; Sat-urday July 7, 20:00; tickets 150-400kr, 3369 6969, www.kglteater.dkBrad Mehldau, one of the most recognisable young names in jazz, has been a regular performer at Copenhagen Jazz Festival. He has performed at venues all over the city – as a solo artist, in a duet, and this time again with his long-time trio featuring Larry Grenadier on bass and Je� Ballard on drums. � eir last per-formance at the jazz festival at Tivoli Glassalen was one of the most blistering performances in recent memory, with multiple encores more exhilarating than any of the rollercoasters outside the concert hall. For the � rst time, Mehldau will play at the venerable Royal � eatre, and the trio’s intense intellectual swing should delight and awaken some of the old spirits in the hall.

Anoushka ShankarDR Koncerthuset, Koncertsalen, Emil Holms Kanal 20, Cph C; Sun-day July 8, 20:00; tickets: 270-420kr, 7026 3267, www.billetlugen.dk.Trained by her father, the legendary sitar player Ravi Shankar, Anoushka Shankar has made a name for herself playing the sitar and performing alongside some of the greatest names in music. � e distinctive setting of the Koncerthus should be an inspiring environment for a unique musical experience.

ChampagneChampagnebossa nova in JulyChampagnebossa nova in JulyChampagne� e Sound of BrazilVarious venues in Cph V

‘THE SOUND of Brazil’ is one of the newest additions to the Copenha-gen Jazz Festival, replacing last year’s Sound of Africa. As the name sug-gests, the concerts will bring the mu-sic of Brazil to a venue right here in Copenhagen. Brazilian music is the product of a vast range of in� uences from its colonial era – the 16th to the 19th century – including various African music traditions, European music traditions, Jewish music and Arabic music. Today Brazilian music continues to absorb the character-istics of international music, trans-forming them into a sound that is distinctly Brazilian. Bossa nova, one of the most popular genres to emerge

from Brazilian jazz and an important part of standard jazz repertoires, is a musical style that must be experi-enced live. � is year, the jazz festival gives audiences the opportunity not only to hear bossa nova live but also performed by Brazilian artists – each of whom will be playing their own distinct styles of the genre. With its syncopated two-four time and em-phasis on rhythm, the music is also perfect for dancing, so make sure you bring a partner along. � ree mu-sicians – Milton Nascimento, Luiz Melodia and Eliane Elias – will be performing their unique interpreta-tions of the theme, playing di� erent instruments that include the guitar and the piano.

SHANDANA MUFTI

TOP PICKTwo concerts by Eliane EliasBrazilian-born piano virtuoso Eliane Elias will be performing two di� erent shows at the festival. Elias has won several awards throughout her career, in-cluding ‘Best Foreign Release Award’ in Denmark in 2006 for Shades of Jade.

Jobim was one of the primary � gures behind the creation of the bossa nova genre, and Elias will be playing a selection of his greatest songs, including the popular ‘Girl from Ipanema’.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDEDMilton NascimentoPolitikens Hus Vester Voldgade 33, Cph V; Friday July 6 & Saturday July 7, 20:30; tickets: 410kr, www.politikenbillet.www2.dkHailed as Brazil’s greatest musician, Milton Nascimento samples Brazilian and African folk music, European classical music and Bra-zilian bossa nova to create a sound reminiscent of the Beatles. His lyrics cover a wide range of topics, from love to the struggles of the oppressed in Latin America. He has worked with popular musicians including Paul Simon (of Simon and Garfunkel) and Sting, and his 1970 release Native Dance is considered one of the most in� uen-tial jazz releases of that year. Don’t miss this opportunity to see him perform in such an intimate venue. In Brazil his concerts are huge.

Luiz MelodiaPolitikens Hus Vester Voldgade 33, Cph V; Tuesday July 10, 20:30; tickets: 290kr, www.politikenbillet.www2.dkFew artists can boast about a career that has spanned four decades – Luiz Melodia is one of the few. � e singer-songwriter plays a unique blend of samba, rock, funk and blues, creating a distinctive sound that has won him fans across the world. Since entering the music scene in the 1970s, he has released music sporadically, even entering a period of isolation. He is regarded as one of the best artists within the Música Popular Brasileira (MPB) genre, and he will no doubt have audiences at the festival mesmerised by his performance.

KONGENS NYTORV: 1050 Cph K At the end of the walking street, this large square may currently be a building site but it has no shortage of interesti ng surroundings such as the Royal Theatre, Nyhavn, and the nearby King’s Gardens.

BODEGASBeer is cheap in the bodegas. Find one in a nice square (like Vesterbro Torv on Vesterbrogade) and

sit outside near those who have paid double at the fancy bars.

CLIPCARDBuy a two-zone clipcard at the airport. Three of the ten clips will get you and one other to Copenha-

gen Central Stati on and it will save you 50 percent over ten clips.

COPENHAGEN CARDFor a lot of sightseeing, get a Copenhagen Card. It will save you at least a thousand kroner a week.

TIPPINGThere’s no pressure to ti p, parti cularly in cafés, but if you do, ten percent is reasonable.

CITY BIKESLook out for the free city bike racks. Like a shopping trolley you need 10 or 20 kroner, which you get

back when you return it. Failing that, you oft en see them abandoned on street corners.

What happens in Oslo, stays in Oslo ...

THERE ARE many reasons to take the ferry to Oslo (a day out in one of Europe’s most beautiful capital cities, two nights of passion in touch with the rhythmic movements of the sea, a bu� et crawling with fresh seafood that will never run out, and a means of es-cape from the Danish tax authorities), but few are more enjoyable than getting on board the Rock Cruise, a (normally) Friday night concert at which the sea will sway you in one direction and the music will knock you right back in the other.

Now in its seventh year, the Rock Cruise season o� ers several concerts, from late spring to early autumn, two nights on board and seven hours to spend, however you wish, in Oslo.

While the next one is sold out – Kim Larsen on Monday August 6; check in-ternet forums for tickets (998kr) – the concert featuring lyrical rockers Ulige Numre on September 14 is not.

But of course, the rock cruise is only a small element of the trip, as I and fel-low journalist Mike Hofman discovered when we made met up at the Copen-hagen ferry terminal to get on board and watch up-and-coming band Reptile Youth. Let’s just say that we hadn’t bar-gained on what we encountered in the queue.

Because the eager, somewhat pushy,

baby carriage-shoving crowd boarding the ferry weren’t what you’d call your typical head-banging, stage-diving, binge drinking audience. It left me with an ambivalent feeling. What is this pre-cisely? I know rock enjoyed its hey day in the 1980s, but did it still attract the same crowd?

Most of the passengers seem to be either middle-aged or parents with tod-dlers and the occasional moody teen-ager. You have to look long to spot a person wearing less than four di� erent colours, not to mention a pair of skin-nies or Raybans. But it doesn’t discour-age and we settle into the mission to � nd the missing link over a few deck-side drinks at one of the boat’s bars. � e ferry hasn’t left the harbour yet, but nothing was going to dissuade us from our � rst port of call.

As the ferry leaves, the deck � lls up as others come out to enjoy the sun and the view with a cold beer or a fruit cup.

Rock or not, the mood is good. And when the sun goes down, the ferry is packed with places to pass the time – in case your cabin should trigger your inner claustrophobe – including lots of bars, restaurants, clubs, a tax-free shop, casino and a pool.

On our � rst night, we dine at the 7 Seas dinner bu� et, which has more or less everything your stomach could de-sire. You eat as much as you can – who doesn’t at this kind of place – but there’s a time limit to your reservation so this is not the place to engage in long time-consuming conversations, or at least not if you want to have time for the dessert table.

� e couple dining next to us – who have been on the ferry more than 50 times and therefore know their way around – tell us that we can get ice cream (instead of, or in addition to, the grown ups’ cheese and fancy cakes) from the kids’ area. And it’s while we’re

struggling with the soft ice cream ma-chine that the missing link � nally enters the room: the band Reptile Youth. Not that they notice, but it’s not the best of � rst impressions on the band we want to interview later.

� ey’re a Danish post-pop/punk band who were originally a duo called Reptile and Retard (before they had ever worked with an adult, presumably) consisting of singer Mads Damsgaard Kristiansen and bass player Esben Valløe. � ey unsurprisingly changed their name and added drummer Emil Vissing Christiensen and guitarist Mads Bergland. � ey head for the bu� et, while we � nish our ice creams and get ready for the concert.

� e Heaven 11 club is the venue and it isn’t big! Straightaway, the band creates a vibe to whisk you away on a journey within a cruise – so much so that you forget you’re on a boat, and that’s pretty extraordinary.

� e lead singer jumps around and climbs the handrails – more than enough bravado to rock this boat. Un-fortunately though, the concert has to end, but the night has only begun and when the band manager asks: “Do you know Mads?”, the prompt and obvious response is “Yes!”, and we continue par-tying in the great company of the band. Adventures ensue and we partake in a few drinks, and even some games, and are treated to a spontaneous concert to-gether with the house band in the Co-lumbus Nightclub.

Fortunately for this reviewer, Mike got the short straw: the return journey. Let’s just say he’s a gentleman, in every possible way, and made his decision when he saw what state I was in on Saturday morning. Besides he’s younger than me and has the kind of stamina that few of us are still blessed with once we hit our mid-20s.

� e boat, the beautiful backdrops and the bassist: they all caught our our reporter’s eye

CAN YOU HAVE your cake and

eat it too? Conventional wisdom

says no, but with their � rst budg-

et plan since the shift of power,

the new Socialdemokraterne-Radikale-

Socialistisk Folkeparti (SRSF) coalition

appear to be giving it a shot.

Many of the elements of the new

budget – which is expected to be re-

leased in its entirety on � ursday – will

increase state spending at a time when

the budget de� cit has increased. But

where the money would come from re-

mained a mystery.

A number of the new budget items

reinstate spending cuts made by the pre-

vious Venstre-Konservative (VK) govern-

ment. Here are a few of the major points:

Families: VK limited the state’s

monthly child support handouts (bør-

necheck) to 35,000 kroner per fam-

ily. � at limit has now been abolished,

meaning that many families will get

larger child bene� ts. � e government

will also pay for fertility treatments and

voluntary sterilisations.

Welfare: VK and Dansk Folkeparti

(DF) introduced specialised welfare pro-

grammes that reduced the cash bene� ts

for new immigrants. � ose programmes

have now been eliminated and going

forward all residents in need of state

support will receive the same welfare

bene� ts. Higher education and research:

Universities will get an extra one billion

kroner over two years to cover costs as-

sociated with a predicted increase in

the number of students. Moreover, stu-

dents will no longer pay administrative

fees, and prospective Master’s students

will have prerequisite course tuitions

paid. � e government will also fund

1,500 more state-supported internship

positions.Infrastructure and job creation:

Some 17.5 billion kroner will be in-

vested over two years in infrastructure

projects, such as a new rail line between

Copenhagen and Ringsted, a project to

widen the Holbæk motorway, erosion

protection e� orts along Jutland’s west

coast, and renovations to public hous-

ing. Prime minister Helle � orning-

Schmidt has said that these ‘kickstart’

projects will create 20,000 new jobs

from 2012-2013. � e Danish Construc-

tion Association predicts 10,000.

Tax break: � e unpopular ‘mul-

timedia tax’ introduced by VK will be

abolished, saving some 525,000 Danes

with business laptops and mobile

phones 3,000 kroner per year.

Not everyone, however, can look for-

ward to a cash infusion. Smokers and junk

food lovers will be taxed higher on their

vices, while international corporations

will also see higher tax bills. SRSF plans

to raise revenue by closing a number of

tax loopholes going back nearly 20 years

that allowed international corporations

in Denmark to escape paying corporate

taxes (see more on page 15).

All told, the spending increases in the

new budget are not as big as the minister

of the economy and interior, Margrethe

Vestager (R), would like. She noted that

VK under-reported the de� cit for 2012,

making it imprudent to spend more. But

Denmark will still meet the EU’s � nan-

cial responsibility benchmarks, despite

the larger de� cit, she added.

A new budget to ‘kickstart’ the economy

SRSF’s � rst budget will spend 17.5 billion

kroner on infrastructure and abolish

previous taxes and restrictions

Tante TViktoriagade 6, 1655 Cph V; Mon-Sat 10:00-22:00, Sun 10:00-21:00; 3210 3610; www.tante-t.dkAt everybody’s favourite Vesterbro auntie, few can resist sampling the cheery, old days atmosphere and the finest cakes in the city. On an average day the shop serves six cakes of its 30 plus recipes, cour-tesy of the owners’ mother, a baker of some renown. The sponges are spectacularly light. Even the brun-sviger, which looks doughy, has a finesse so striking its principal ingredient must be helium. The tea’s not bad either. Served in a flamboyantly wide cup, pouring the milk in is quite cinematic, like the end of Zabriskie Point and Star Wars all rolled into one. But the star of the show must be the scones. They come in plain, chocolate chip or dried fruit varieties, and it is hard to imagine having a better cream tea in this city. BH

Cornish Pasty HouseStudiestræde 8; 1455 Cph K; 3313 2103; www.cornish-pastyhouse.dkThe pasties are shipped directly from their birthplace in Cornwall, England’s wild southwestern tip, and baked in the shop ovens before serving. Fillings include lamb and mint, chicken and bacon, as well as the traditional steak pasty. The shop also serves British ‘pastries’ such as sausage rolls, pork pies, and mature cheese and bacon turno-vers. AK

Café nose WiseVestmannagade 4, Islands Brygge, Cph S; Mon-Thu 08:00–19:00, Fri 08:00–20:00, Sat-Sun 10:00-17:00; 3296 0220; Brunch: 140krOur brunch platter at Café Nose Wise rocked our boat from the second it hit our table. While the waiter kindly gave us a Tour de Plate, naming the delicious look-ing specialties, our mouths wa-tered so badly we were tempted to shush him and swallow it all at once. Nothing was mediocre on this plate: the fig nice and juicy, the yoghurt with honey was topped with perfectly roasted almonds, the spicy roasted potatoes perfect with the Italian salami. SL

Sankt Peders Bageri ApsSankt Peders Stræde 29; 1453 Cph K; open Mon-Fri 6:00-17:30, Sat 7:00-16:00, Sun 8:00-14:00; 3311 1129On Wednesdays the colour of the shop is gold in honour of their best-seller, the giant Wednesday-snail or snegle. This is a huge cinnamon bun – a round spiral the size of a young child’s head, spread with sugar and cinnamon and baked golden. AK

den franske BogcaféFiolstræde 16, st, 1171 Cph K; Open Mon-Fri 10:00-18:00, Sat 10:00-16:00; 3699 1692; www.denfranskebogcafe.dkThis charming café offers a great value full breakfast and classic pas-tries, quiche lorraine, onion soup and salad with grilled goat cheese. Wine and beer are served, as well as speciality coffees. It is not only about reading and eating either, with re-cordings by French musicians and French films also available for pur-chase. AK

Paludan BogcafeFiolstræde 10-12, 1171 Cph K; Open Mon-Fri 9:00-22:00, Sat-Sun 10:00-22:00; 3315 0675; www.paludan-cafe.dk Browse the nooks, crannies and al-coves of this book cafe, which cus-tomers need to do anyway in their search for a seat. Or simply visit www.antikvariat.net. The menu is longer than the average book café, offering dishes that include chilli con carne, baked salmon, tagliatella, and weekend brunch. AK

rayuelaFælledvej 5; 2200 Cph N; Open Mon-Sun 10:00-19:00; Tel: 3535 6674; www.rayuela.dkThis café specialises in books, food and events from the Spanish-speak-ing world. Readings, concerts and book group meetings are all part of Rayuela’s monthly calendar. Its spe-cialty drink is mate, the herbal infu-sion from the mate plant popular in South America. AK

ArabicaBlågårdsgade 12, Cph N; open Mon-Fri 08:30-22:00, Sat-Sun 09:00-21:00; 3537 4496If you’re hungry, order a sandwich, soup, homemade cake or pastry – but be warned, everything is veg-etarian at this cosy Nørrebro café. It serves numerous organic juices and sodas. KP

Underwood inkRyesgade 30A, Toogtyvenul-nul, Cph N; Tue-Wed 12:00-24:00, Thu-Sat 12:00- 02:00, Sun 12:00-22:00; 3535 5553Combining books with a bar con-jured up images of geek-cool and librarians in love. This was not dis-pelled by the couple embracing by candle light. Barely open for a few months, the bar has a much older feel, not quite old like a smoky bodega, but comfortable like one’s own living room might be. There are 600-800 titles on any given day and often they are not what you can find in the larger shops. SP

Siciliansk isSkydebanegade 3, Cph V; open daily 13:00-18:00; large 35kr, medium 29kr and small 22kr, both cones and cups; www.si-cilianskis.dk; 3026 2606Italy is famous for its ice creams, but ask them where they would go for a special ‘is’, and the answer is Sicily, which might explain why this shop employs Sicilian staff and imports its principal ingredients from Sicily with a heavy emphasis on ecological ones. The texture of the ice cream is unbelievable: chewy-looking and really creamy. Oh, and the hazelnut is fantastic. BH

The Coffee CollectiveJægersborggade 10, 2200 Cph N; 6015 1525When was the last time you de-scribed the taste of your coffee? If you come here you’ll have no reason for excuses; you’ll not only want to reflect upon what you’re putting in your mouth, but also where it comes from. Directly trad-ed from farms in Brazil, Ethiopia and Kenya, where the farmers set their own terms of trade, the select coffee is so good you’ll enjoy even that last cold swallow. AM

Thiemers MagasinTullinsgade 24; 1618 Cph V; Open Mon-Fri 11:00-17:30, Sat 11:00-14:00; Tel: 5059 5100; www.thiemersmagasin.dkThiemers Magasin hosts poetry readings and art exhibitions in the true café spirit, although it is pri-marily a bookstore. The selection of magazines, books, and other odds and ends is varied and yet carefully selected. It includes classics, many with an art and design focus, as well as other editions from smaller publishing companies. AK

Pubs & Bars

The irish roverStrøget 46, 1161 Cph K; Open daily 10:00-late; www.irishrov-er.dkYou won’t find a more child-friend-ly pub in the whole city. From the fish and chip expat family nights at 17:00 on the last Friday of every month, to enjoying the Sunday roast (lamb, all the trimmings, just 99kr, kids portion for 58kr), they are always welcome. There’s live music Thursday-Sunday (22:00-late), the kitchen is open from 10:00 until late every day – serv-ing a burger meal with pint for just 120kr – the pub caters to all sports fans, there’s a pool table in their back room where you can smoke, and upstairs there’s a new lounge area, which is the perfect place to relax with a view over Strøget. BH

The Globe Nørregade 43-45, 1165 Cph K; Opening hours vary, until 03:00 Fri-SatFriendly service and good value food make this the perfect city pub, and it’s difficult to know where to enjoy your pint given the number of options. If it’s company you want, you might try the main bar, or a private function, the second bar; seating-wise pull up a high chair, relax on cushioned benches or lord it as a bishop for the even-ing; or go genteel in the library – a great place to cheat in the fort-nightly quiz, the longest running in the city. BH

The old English PubVesterbrogade 2B, 1620 Cph V; Open Sun-Thu 11:30-02:30, Fri-Sat 11:30-04:30; 3332 1921; www.oldenglishpub.dk This Victorian style English pub has all the class and authenticity of a Cotswolds country pub, not a Costa del Sol flea trap. Facing Tivo-li’s arches and just a stone’s throw from Strøget, it’s the ideal pit-stop on a tour of the city centre. LB

Southern Cross Løngangstræde 37, Cph K; open Sun-Thu 15:00-03:00, Sat-Sun 12:00-05:00; 3311 0939 This Aussie boozer has a lively darts board, a fortnightly quiz, a good sports-viewing atmosphere, and a happy hour that lasts to 8pm dur-ing which you can buy beers for just 30kr. JHW

kennedy’s irish BarGammel Kongevej 23, 1610 Cph V; Open Mon-Sun 12:00-02:00It’s not an Irish pub. Instead, it’s a pub owned by Irishmen, and there’s a big difference. It’s an au-thentic taste of what the Emerald Isle was like in the 1980s in a pub totally devoid of concepts, themes, and DIY Irish pub kits. Drop by at 17:00 on Fridays for the traditional Irish music sessions which are rap-idly gaining in popularity. BH

The dublinerAmagertorv 5, Strøget, 1160 Cph K; Opening Hours: Mon-Sun 10:00-lateThis pub is never quiet. It’s the per-fect place for sports fans to mingle, or for live music which it provides every day. It also serves food all day from 10am to 10pm, and diners can find peace from the music and sport on a table overlooking the walking street, or on the first floor balcony overlooking Amagertorv. BH

Brew Pub Vestergade 29, 1456 Cph K; restaurant open Mon-Sat 12:00-22:00, pub open Mon-Thu 12:00-24:00, Fri-Sat 12:00-02:00, Sun closed; 3332 0060; three-course lunch menu 155kr; www.brewpub.dkThe menu is full of hearty, homely, yet inventive dishes featuring in-spired use of the same wonderful ingredients that go into the brew-ing process. Each dish can be easily matched by one of Brew Pub’s own concoctions from the casks across the courtyard. AK

Mikkeller BarViktoriagade 8BC, Basement, Cph V; open Sun-Wed 15:00-24:00, Thu-Fri 14:00-02:00, Sat 12:00-02:00; www.mikkeller.dk“Today, people have greater knowl-edge about beer but most don’t understand just how complex it really can be,’’ explains Jannik at Mikkeller. Among its 60 varieties is one that used ‘coffee that has been passed through a weasel’. JH

CAN YOU HAVE your cake and

eat it too? Conventional wisdom

says no, but with their � rst budg-

et plan since the shift of power,

the new Socialdemokraterne-Radikale-

Socialistisk Folkeparti (SRSF) coalition

appear to be giving it a shot.

Many of the elements of the new

budget – which is expected to be re-

leased in its entirety on � ursday – will

increase state spending at a time when

the budget de� cit has increased. But

where the money would come from re-

mained a mystery.

A number of the new budget items

reinstate spending cuts made by the pre-

vious Venstre-Konservative (VK) govern-

ment. Here are a few of the major points:

Families: VK limited the state’s

monthly child support handouts (bør-

necheck) to 35,000 kroner per fam-

ily. � at limit has now been abolished,

meaning that many families will get

larger child bene� ts. � e government

will also pay for fertility treatments and

voluntary sterilisations.

Welfare: VK and Dansk Folkeparti

(DF) introduced specialised welfare pro-

grammes that reduced the cash bene� ts

for new immigrants. � ose programmes

have now been eliminated and going

forward all residents in need of state

support will receive the same welfare

bene� ts. Higher education and research:

Universities will get an extra one billion

kroner over two years to cover costs as-

sociated with a predicted increase in

the number of students. Moreover, stu-

dents will no longer pay administrative

fees, and prospective Master’s students

will have prerequisite course tuitions

paid. � e government will also fund

1,500 more state-supported internship

positions.Infrastructure and job creation:

Some 17.5 billion kroner will be in-

vested over two years in infrastructure

projects, such as a new rail line between

Copenhagen and Ringsted, a project to

widen the Holbæk motorway, erosion

protection e� orts along Jutland’s west

coast, and renovations to public hous-

ing. Prime minister Helle � orning-

Schmidt has said that these ‘kickstart’

projects will create 20,000 new jobs

from 2012-2013. � e Danish Construc-

tion Association predicts 10,000.

Tax break: � e unpopular ‘mul-

timedia tax’ introduced by VK will be

abolished, saving some 525,000 Danes

with business laptops and mobile

phones 3,000 kroner per year.

Not everyone, however, can look for-

ward to a cash infusion. Smokers and junk

food lovers will be taxed higher on their

vices, while international corporations

will also see higher tax bills. SRSF plans

to raise revenue by closing a number of

tax loopholes going back nearly 20 years

that allowed international corporations

in Denmark to escape paying corporate

taxes (see more on page 15).

All told, the spending increases in the

new budget are not as big as the minister

of the economy and interior, Margrethe

Vestager (R), would like. She noted that

VK under-reported the de� cit for 2012,

making it imprudent to spend more. But

Denmark will still meet the EU’s � nan-

cial responsibility benchmarks, despite

the larger de� cit, she added.

A new budget to ‘kickstart’ the economy

SRSF’s � rst budget will spend 17.5 billion

kroner on infrastructure and abolish

previous taxes and restrictions

How the Webb master has respun Spider-Man

T HIS ISN’T a sequel, it’s a re-make! Of a � lm that was only released in 2002. And director Marc Webb didn’t do himself any favours branding this � lm

‘amazing’. Talk about setting yourself up for a fall! But in true Spidey style, the elasticated webs are as dependably strong as ever, springing the aptly-named Webb into the Hollywood mainstream with a reinvention every bit as good as Christopher Nolan’s Bat-man 2.0.

� e Amazing Spider-Man was origi-nally intended as the fourth instalment of the Spider-Man series, with original director Sam Raimi still in charge. But when he bailed, Webb – the director of the brilliant 500 Days of Summer, who even looks a bit like Nolan – decided to take us back to the 2002 original.

� e basic storyline is the same: geeky nerd at school develops powers, � ghts crime and wins over high-school crush, before a showdown with the vil-lain. And, unlike Batman Begins, there is the same degree of humour with Parker (Gar� eld) trying to deal with his newly-discovered powers after be-ing bitten by a spider. It’s also better thought out: for example, Peter creates his own arti� cial webs instead of just being able to spout them out like in the original.

� e beginning of the movie intro-duces Peter’s parents, so unlike in the other movies, you are given an insight

into his childhood, and it adds more mystery to their death. Being raised by his Uncle Ben (Sheen) and Aunt May (Field), Peter grows up trying to � nd out what happened to his parents, and in doing so we meet the villain of the story, Dr Curt Connors (Ifans), his fa-ther’s former work colleague. He turns into the Green Lizard (instead of the Green Goblin), an ultimately scarier and more e� ective adversary.

Peter is a shy, mumbling skate-boarding teen, while quirky Gwen Stacy (Stone) replaces the modest girl-next-door Mary Jane Watson. � ey are cooler – here’s a Spider-Man the girls

will actually want to sleep with – and have a much more believable chemis-try.

Gar� eld, already a household name in his home country Britain thanks to standout turns in Boy A and the � rst of the Red Riding trilogy, underlined his potential with his understated Oscar-nominated role in � e Social Network, and this � lm will launch his career into the stratosphere. He brings heart-felt emotion to all his work, delivering a superhero depiction that many will relate to. Not sure if that would have been a good thing with Batman, but it works for Spider-Man – after all, he’s

just a geek who can produce silly string, right?

Webb � nds a perfect balance of action and emotion. � e frenetic set-pieces will please the comic book pur-ists – the 3D element particularly en-hances the e� ectiveness of the graphics, especially when Spider-Man is swing-ing through New York City – while the female audience will be moved by some surprisingly touching scenes, some of which are enough to make even the most cold-hearted person shed a tear.

� e only criticism would be that the end showdown is a bit disappoint-ing. It didn’t seem right for a superhero

movie and was incredibly clichéd. Still, the � nal seconds did yield a tense cli� -hanger, which will keep the fans look-ing forward to the sequel.

Considering it was a remake, Webb has done a good job making it unique, without drifting away from the basic story. Did we need another Spider-Man? Perhaps not, bearing in mind it was only ten years ago that the origi-nal one was made. However, Webb has successfully refreshed the original movie, with just the right amount of action, emotion and humour to en-tertain the masses. Batman had better watch his back.

“Oh gawd, you’re not the puny one who rides Seabiscuit are you? Would it help if I had hooves?”

LYDIA DEICHMANN

T HE CALM before the storm quite aptly describes the opening of this under-

stated and intense indie o� er-ing from director Je� Nichols. Curtis and his wife Samantha stand in the doorway of their daughter’s room watching her sleep. � ey muse over the fact that they’re still whispering

despite her deafness – clearly a recent reality that they have yet to come to terms with. � e scenes that follow further estab-lish this family’s typically rural, working-class Ohio existence, in which lumberjack-shirted, pickup truck-driving Curtis toils relentlessly to provide for his family, while his wife reli-giously scrambles eggs (and her mind) every morning, gossips with the neighbours in the af-ternoon, and runs a stall to earn a little extra for the family pot on weekends.

� en, as the ominously rumbling heavens close in over Curtis one day, one gets a sense that a shift in this white picket fenced, apple pie back-

water template is imminent – as dark and incomprehensible as the storm clouds above and as frighteningly unsettling as the tornadoes on the horizon and the oily viscosity of the rain that falls. As the storms inten-sify, and it transpires that Curtis appears to be the only one that can see them, so does his sense of impending doom. Severe, sweat-soaked dreams become a nightly ritual that transgress into his waking life, and despite acknowledging to himself that he is su� ering from some kind of psychological breakdown, his sense of isolation from his fam-ily and community deepens. He decides to build a storm shelter that not only satis� es his in-

stincts to protect his family, but also provides a refuge for him against an increasingly hostile and intolerant world.

Take Shelter is a gem of a � lm that quietly and poetically explores the pitfalls of aliena-tion and human folly, and both Shannon and Chastain (recent-ly lauded for her role in Ter-rence Malick’s Tree of Life) hit their marks to perfection. Di-rector Nichols’ second feature, which deservedly collected two prizes at Cannes, hardly puts a foot wrong in subtly and deftly unravelling the mind of his cen-tral character while engaging his audience with the maturity of a seasoned professional.

Sloth Sid reaches new heights of stupidity while Jennif-er Lopez does her best as a misled feline marauder. Yet even a mas-terly voiced Peter Dinklage as a pirate orangutan can’t save this � ick from a bad case of triteness and unremedied lack of heart.

What to Expect When You’re Expecting (11)

Dir: Kirk Jones; US com-edy, 2012, 105 mins; Eliza-beth Banks, Cameron Diaz, Anna KendrickPrepare to keep your expecta-tions low for the latest Hol-lywood ensemble rom com, What to Expect When You’re Expecting. For a � lm that claims to show how unpre-dictable life can be, the script is horribly predictable. ED

LOL (3)

Dir: Lisa Azuelos; US com-edy, 2012, 97 mins; Miley Cyrus, Demi Moore, Ashley Greene, Adam SevaniIf a � lm begins with an American teenager talking about her high school and walking out in slow-motion, arm in arm with her b� s – you can put your expecta-tions to rest. � is � ick will have

nothing new to o� er, whether it’s teenage broken hearts, hook-ing up in summer camp, a bat-tle of the bands, school trips to Paris, parties and pot. MH

� e Hunger Games (11)

Dir: Gary Ross; US sci-fi, 2012, 142 mins; Jennifer Lawrence, Liam Hemsworth, Woody HarrelsonRoss has successfully dissected and expanded the book and pro-duced something that works as a � lm – so long as you’re not too precious about its origins. MH

Wuthering Heights (15)

Dir: Andrea Arnold; UK drama, 2011, 129 mins; Kaya Scodelario, James Howson, Oliver MilburnBased on the classic novel by Emily Brontë, this adaption of Wuthering Heights is one of the most impressive cos-tume dramas of the year. MH

� e Dictator (11)

Dir: Larry Charles; US comedy, 2012, 83 mins; Sacha Baron Cohen, Anna Faris, Ben Kingsley, John C ReillyCohen’s fans will recall the tepid dis-appointment of Ali G: Indahouse. � e Dictator shares the � ction ap-proach of that � lm and con� rms the superiority of Cohen’s � ction/documentery hybrids over these pure � ctions. Genuinely funny moments are too few, and almost all of those aren’t politicised. MW

Prometheus (15)

Dir: Ridley Scott; US sci-fi, 2012, 126 mins; Michael Fassbender, Noomi Rapace, Charlize Theron, Idres Elba, Guy Pearce� ere are some decent moments of horror and tension. � ere are also planet-sized plot holes and moments of ham-� sted stupidity. With the recent announcement that Ridley is returning to that other sci-� masterpiece, Blade Runner, there’s a sense that in his twilight years he’s riding the coattails of his past success. MW

� e Lucky One (11)

Dir: Scott Hicks; US drama, 2012, 101 mins; Zac Efron, Taylor Schilling, Blythe Danner� e Lucky One doesn’t deliver many plot twists, and if you have seen the trailer, you basi-cally saw the whole � lm. But that’s not necessarily a bad thing. You know what to expect, so you can’t claim to be disappointed by it. It’s a romantic drama, so don’t expect � reworks. DC

Captive (15)

Dir: Brillante Mendoza; UK/Fra/Ger/Phi drama, 2012, 120 mins; Isabelle Huppert, Mercedes Cabral, Maria Isabel Lopez� e � lm drew a lot of � re from the press as it was rejected by both Cannes and Venice, which created a somewhat toxic whi� . After all, Cannes built Mendoza’s reputation with his win for Ki-natay, so how bad could his � rst decently budgeted � lm be? Well, not half as bad as expected. MH

Men in Black III (11)

Dir: Barry Sonnenfeld; US action, 2012, 105 mins; Will Smith, Tommy Lee Jones, Josh Brolin, Jemaine ClementIt’s a light, fun sci-� adventure, with perhaps a slightly darker overture than the previous � lms, MiB3 is worth seeing in a theatre – if for nothing else the roar of the Apollo rocket that rumbles your chest, and the 3D which is one of the bet-ter that I have encountered. KE

Get the Gringo (15)

Dir: Adrian Grunberg; US action, 2012, 96 mins; Mel Gibson, Peter Stormare, Dean NorrisMel Gibson � nds new life in a Mexican jail after getting caught with $4 million dollars of mob-ster money. Not an easy place for an outsider, unless it’s with the help of someone who knows the ropes – a 10-year-old kid. It’s both cheesy and striking, corny and bold, dismissible and yet strangely appealing. MH

Snow White and the Huntsman (11)

Dir: Rupert Sanders; UK/US action, 2012, 127 mins; Kristen Stewart, Charlize Theron, Chris Hemsworth,Sam Claflin, Ian McShaneIn a twist to the fairy tale, the huntsman ordered to take Snow White into the woods to kill her winds up becoming her protector and mentor in a quest to vanquish the Evil Queen. But unfortunately, this overlong retelling of a Grimm fairy tale is short on magic. MH

PICK OF THE WEEK

THE PREMISE of British minise-ries Without You sounds intriguing, the cast (Marc Warren, Anna Friel) is likeable, and the Guardian found the � rst episode “gripping”, but yet it scored below 7 on IMDB, sug-gesting that the ending is a bit disap-pointing.

Strong starts and weak endings are typical of British miniseries, but less likely to ruin a drama series. With 8.4 on IMDB, Garrow’s Law (BBC Ent, Sat 21:00) follows the exploits of a pioneering barrister in 18th century London, who champi-oned the underdog and rubbed the to� s’ noses up the wrong way. Creat-ed by Tony Marchant (Holding On), it co-stars Alun Armstrong – good to see both of them back to form.

Always great value (although you question whether every BBC

brainstorming session ends with someone suggesting they � nd out who Stephen Fry’s favourite xxx is), Wagner and Me (DRK, Sun 20:00) sees the Jewish wit come to terms with his love of the German composer’s music, and Wagner’s rampant anti-Semitism.

Would Wagner have tuned in for Spielberg on Spielberg (DRK, Sat 22:55)? If he promises to explain why he kept the last � ve minutes of War of the Worlds, surely it’s worth a punt. Talking of the apocalypse, Up in Smoke (SV2, Sun 22:30) follows the exploits of an environmentalist, who advocates an e� ective alterna-tive for slash and burn farming, from 2006 until 2009, climaxing with his appearance at Cop15. Let’s hope he doesn’t get arrested and forced to sit in the street for six hours.

Elsewhere, Da Johnny Cash ramte Søborg (DR2, Wed 20:30) features Cash speaking Danish; join Gwyneth Paltrow on a 13-episode cookery odyssey in Spain – On the Road Again (from DR2, Fri 17:55); forget Roskilde and watch this year’s Glastonbury Festival (SV1, Sat 23:50); join Adele at the Albert Hall (SV2, Sat 22:00); there’s another chance to see Cold Feet rip-o� Married single other (SV1, Fri 16:55); the � rst episode of What Brits Love (DR2, Wed 21:40) deals with sandwiches (hats and cars to follow); Robert Mugabe … what happened (DR2, � u 22:50) sounds like they’re going to tell us; and then there’s Vietnam: Lost Films (DR2, � u 20:00) – we guess they’ve found them.
