Majken Christiansen
Majken Christiansen
sings revitalized jazz in the tradition of the great jazz divas, and Ella Fitzgerald will always be one of the greatest inspirational sources. Majken does her concerts with an open and updated expression, and whatever she sings, she interprets the timeless lyrics and melodies of The American Songbook with warmth, honesty and conviction.

Majken is originally from Copenhagen. She has made countless concerts, has recorded several albums and has her own Danish fan club! Since 2001, Majken has lived in Oslo, where she is a soloist with Norway's most profound big bands and military orchestras and has toured a lot for "Rikskonsertene" in Norway and China.

With such a versatile quartet from Norway, Majken Christiansen is a perfect Danish counterpart. Elegant, fun and sensitive, but also powerful as a "big fat mama". Trained as an actor and singer in Denmark, Norway and The United States, Majken has it all to reach out to an audience, be it in a theater, in a concert hall or in a small club... (Erling Wicklund, producer in NRK)

Majken Christiansen is a flexible entertainer. At events and at jazz clubs, she likes to perform in trio, quartet and quintet formats. One of her projects is with Morten Gunnar Larsen (piano) and Georg Reiss (clarinet). She is also a soloist, fronting many big bands.

In 2017 Majken made a series of major concerts in connection with the celebration of Ella Fitzgerald's 100th anniversary.
