Nils Landgren

Feb 15, 1957 (68 years old) in Degerfors, Västerbottens län, Sweden

Born in 1956, Nils Landgren began playing drums at the age of six, before finally discovering the Trombone at age 13. And between 1972 and 1978 was he studing classical Trombone at the music college in Karlstad with David Maytan, as well as at the University in Arvika with Ingemar Roos. And meeting the legendary Swedish Folk-Jazz pioneer Bengt-Arne Wallin as well as the fantastic trombonist Eje Thelin persuaded him to move from strict classical studies to improvisation and to begin the development of his own approach.
