About

Bandoneonist Jens Lundberg, born in Stockholm, Sweden, studied with the Argentinian bandoneon virtuoso Juan José Mosalini at Conservatoire Edgar Varèse in Paris, from where he received his diploma. He has also taken lessons with Matias Gonzales, Juanjo Mosalini and participated in orquesta tipica masterclasses for Per-Arne Glorvigen in Norway.

Lundberg has performed both as a soloist and with various ensembles. His repertoire includes both traditional tango and tango Nuevo works, aswell as music from the baroque and classical era, and he is constantly acquiring new compositions within the contemporary repertoire.

In Paris he formed the duo Dos Fueyes with accordionist Daniel Andersson, with whom he has given concerts both in France, Norway and Sweden. During 2010 Lundberg toured around Sweden with the Malmö Opera in the production ‘Tangoliv’. He has also performed with the Helikon Chamber Trio, consisting of himself on bandoneon, Christian Lindberg on trombone and Andrea Tarrodi on piano. The trio has performed in both Sweden and Portugal and on Swedish television.
Together with singer/actress Marie Öhrn from the production Tangoliv, Lundberg formed the Stockholm Tango Duo. The duo tours around Sweden and has performed at, among other venues, Kulturhuset Stockholm, Teater Halland, and Regionsteatern Växjö.

Upcoming projects include a solo recording with tango works for bandoneon. Lundberg is also putting together a trio with violinist Emilio Estrada and accordionist Daniel Andersson. Their repertoire will contain tango nuevo works by Astor Piazzolla, but also traditional tangos in new arrangements.
