About Me

My name is August Rosenbaum - welcome to this site! I am a 20 years old pianist, living, playing and studying music in Copenhagen, Denmark. Recipient of the (Danish Composer) Jacob Gade Prize in 2004 and the Léonie Sonning Student Prize in 2007. At the moment I am concentrating on my trio with drummer Rasmus Lund and bassplayer Jesper Thorn. See calender for shows and tourdates! Recently composed the music for shortfilms "Little Girl Fishing" (Zentropa, 2007) by director Simon Starski and "Sangen" by Daniel Kragh-Jacobsen (Zentropa 2009). As far as musical relations go, I am very greatful for knowing and working with singer and composer Clara Bryld, celloist Andreas Brantelid, and my always inspiring friend, Kasper "Klemme" Ebdrup. I will keep you posted on the music and future shows on the site. Thanks for stopping by!
