He is self-taught on the trumpet, although he studied conducting at the Royal Music Conservatory in Copenhagen.

In addition, he was a member of the Radioens Big Band over a similar time frame. He played trumpet in both, but also wrote, arranged, and conducted both. Forming a jazz quintet with drummer, Alex Riel they performed at the Montreux Jazz Festival and Newport Jazz Festival. He later led an octet, V8, in the 1970s, and another outfit, Entrance, from the mid-1970s until 1985. His compositions were made for various ensembles, including extended pieces for larger outfits. In 1984, he composed Aura, a tribute to Miles Davis. From Wikipedia (
