Jazzhus Montmartre is the historic jazz hotspot of Copenhagen, presenting world class live jazz at the original intimate venue where it all started in 1959 at Store Regnegade 19A (Great Rain Street) in the heart of the Danish capital. From 1959-1976, the club made jazz history as the European home for jazz giants Dexter Gordon, Ben Webster, Stan Getz, Kenny Drew and many other masters of the 60's and 70's. They all moved to Copenhagen because of the special atmosphere of Montmartre. The club got under their skin with its special ambiance and extraordinary people. The photo on the left is from a Playboy Magazine story in 1964 showing the intense admiration at Montmartre for Dexter Gordon. While living in Copenhagen, the great American jazz icons educated a whole generation of Danish jazz masters, including the famous Danish bass players Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen, Mads Vinding, Jesper Lundgaard and Bo Stief, drummer Alex Riel, and trumpeter Palle Mikkelborg.
