The world-famous Moroccan percussionist Rhani Krija and the Swedish pianist Jacob Karlzon may come from different cultural backgrounds, but they are on the same wavelength both personally and musically. Karlzon elicits incredible melodies full of melancholy and tenderness as well as Intricate improvisations from his grand piano, while Krija takes his musical thoughts and spins them out on his diverse percussion instruments.


The result is a lively dialog which they describe in the following way:
„We are Mosaic – a piano and percussion duo that creates music in the here and now. 
Improvisation, spontaneity and the energy of the moment are what drive us. The album „Mosaic“ reflects this philosophy: each song is a fragment, a moment, a puzzle piece of a larger whole. We compose live in real time and are inspired by the connection to the audience. Music that lives, breathes and surprises.“


„Mosaic is more than just music. It is a dialog, an encounter, a living expression of creativity and connection.“

Karlzon is known for his collaboration with all the world’s jazz greats and is very successful with his trio (Warner Records) and the duo with Victoria Tolstoy (ACT Music). Krija has performed with the likes of Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea, 
Al Di Meola and Sting.

In spring 2025, the duo releases its first, long awaited album.
