Andreas Oberg Quartet

Series sponsored by ROBERT AND JEAN FAIRCLOTH.

April 3, 2008 12:30 PM

Series: Jazz Now and Forever

As a teenage Swedish tennis prodigy, Andreas Oberg had to make a tough decision of whether to continue his sport or pursue his true love, playing guitar. Fortunately, he chose the latter, and his agility and grace on the fret board have made him one of the most fluent young stylists playing jazz today, further attested to in his performances alongside such musicians as Bucky Pizzarelli, Ken Peplowski, Frank Vignola and Joey DeFrancesco. This performance marks his southern debut. "At 28, he has mastered everything from bebop and swing to bossa nova, Gypsy jazz and fusion, enhanced with youthful, rock-driven vigor." - Los Angeles Times
