A few weeks ago, more than 20 musicians living in the Netherlands were performing on this festival tour by Banyan Tree Events, the Word Jazz Festival. It was organised as a tour through several Indian cities. I've learned recently that Bangalore is officially named Bengaluru and Bombay is Mumbai. There were also shows in other cities but I flew stratight to Bengaluru and performed acoustic jazz; a few tunes from my new album and as you can see also made people dance together with Zosja as Venus Tunes Live.
Here's a little compilation of some of the concerts in these cities. These musicians were performing here: Alexander Beets, Rolf Delfos, Lucas Santana, Ellister van der Molen, Susanne Alt, Zosja El Rhazi, Anna Serierse, Lizzy Ossevoort, Baer Traa, Sebastiaan van Bavel, Timothy Banchet, Davor Stehlik, Marius Beets, Matheus Nicolaiewsky, Tim Hennekes and Sven Rozier. Robert Glass joined me for filming and tour management. Please fill me in if I forgot you! Special thanks to Banyan Tree for inviting us and Alexander Beets and Sven Rozier for putting the program together and coordinating our travels!
