Here it is: Some impressions of the gig together with Dennis van der Geest at Haarlem Jazz & More. What a good and honest title for a festival, there are too many festivals which call themselves jazz festival but aren't jazz festivals at all. At the end of the day beer has to be sold so they have to book acts which are suitable for crowds. So: jazz "and more" :-) Cheers!
This is a tune called Kalunga Dance, from my latest album Dark Horse, order it here or buy it at a concert, the next one is Brebl, Nijmegen 1 day after my birthday on 16th of April! Hope to see you there!In this performance, we featured percussionist/vocalist and world citizen Helene Jank. She lived and worked in Brazil for quite a while and I really think it's audible here. I love the way she and the band creates this moment of space within the concert and this is also why - I think - visiting concerts is important because then you get to experience the whole context of the concert. How is the program build up, how does the audience respond and what does music makes you feel. More info:Susanne Alt: sax, Matthijs Geerts and Ike van Bergen: keys, Thomas Pol: bass, Yoràn Vroom: drums, Helene Jank: percussion Performed at 16th of January 2026 at Bimhuis, Amsterdam, Recorded by Onno Prillwitz Filmed by Robert Glass and Albert Nooij. - Here it is: Some impressions of the gig together with Dennis van der Geest at Haarlem Jazz & More.
