JENS LINDEMANN

Trumpet

Jens Lindemann is the first classical brass player to ever receive the Order of Canada, and the foremost trumpet soloist in his country’s history. Celebrated for his beauty of tone and virtuosity, Lindemann’s career has ranged from being a multiple Juno and Grammy nominee in numerous musical styles, to being a viral video sensation as the “snowstorm trumpeter.” Equally at home playing Carnegie Hall, Madison Square Garden, or the closing ceremonies of the Olympics, Lindemann has a unique connection to audiences in all venues and places. The recipient of major awards from Prague and Munich and three honorary degrees, Lindemann is also the only trumpeter to win the ‘Grand Prize’ in the 60-year history of the Canadian Music Competition.
