Arne Jansen is a guitarist & composer and 2x ECHO Jazz Award-winner.
âWe havenât had a jazz guitarist with the format of Berlin-based Arne Jansen in Germany for decades. Perhaps never at allâ, was the verdict of the magazine Jazzthetik, for example, regarding Jansenâs boundary-breaking skills on his instrument, which have already gained him two âECHO Jazzâ prizes for the albums âThe Sleep of Reason â Ode to Goyaâ and âNine Firmamentsâ.
He is known for his work with Nils WĂźlker, Jazzanova, David Helbock, Sebastian Studnitzky, Anders Jormin and the legendary Orchestra Baobab from Senegal.
