Moritz Christiansen Trio consists of saxophonist Moritz Christiansen (DE), bassist Krzysztof Maciejko (PL), and drummer Marcus Kendellen (DK/IR), who met in 2022 at the music conservatory in Aalborg. Their music is characterized by improvisation and the diverse backgrounds of the band members.

Moritz Christiansen, who currently lives in Reykjavík, composes the music and strives to merge various influences from his musical journey so far, which has taken him from Northern Germany through Northern Denmark to Iceland. The music plays with the contrast between lyrical, melodic soundscapes and energetic, improvisational dialogues and is clearly inspired by bands like Jim Black's Alas No Axis and Paul Motian Trio.
