About Me

Lars main instrument is the saxophone. He started to play this instrument in the school band in his homeplace Lørenskog, a place just outside Oslo. He attended the high school in the nearest city, Lillestrøm, when he turned sixteen and stayed there for three years. Here Lars got mainly classical lessons and training on his instrument. But in his sparetime he played in different local big bands and started his first jazz and blues band, Hoff Henly Quintet. After these years he took his military services in the music platoon in His Majesty the Kings Guard of Norway in Oslo. This year took him on tours all over Norway and military tattoos in Europe. He also joined the big band in the platoon. Then he attended the first year of an art history degree at the University of Oslo. In 2007 he finished a bachelor degree in saxophone teaching at the University of Stavanger. Currently he studies arranging and composing, plays in "FUNKAHUNTERS" and teaches music at Tasta Skole in Stavanger.
