Open up to 1,000 years of musical culture

Curiosity drives. Our musical world is like a flea market, a bazaar, an attic full of stuff waiting to be explored. Our ears love strange sounds and instruments. They trigger questions on style, genre, instrumentation: ‘What if we could…?’.

Curiosity embraces. Our art is all about incorporation: acquired knowledge and fresh insight are respectfully transformed into something new. Other art forms may enter our stage.

Curiosity communicates. After a lot of preparation, we allow our improvisational qualities to take over. An ultimate form of musical thinking, not limited to the jazz tradition. We like our performances to make the audience an active partner in the creative moment.

Activities

Rembrandt Frerichs, Tony Overwater, Vinsent Planjer: three musicians and contemporary cultural explorers.

More importantly: three very different individuals, each with the ability to turn innovative ideas into practice. Check out the projects to feel their energy and the possibilities their extensive network brings.

The Contemporary Fortepiano

With the line-up of fortepiano, violone and Whisper Kit, the Rembrandt Trio have created a totally new sound over the past few years. It reflects perfectly their love for jazz, European Early music and art music from the Middle East. Read more

Rembrandt Trio

The Rembrandt Trio (formerly known as the Rembrandt Frerichs Trio) was formed some 15 years ago in the jazz capital of the Netherlands, The Hague. Read more

Tony Overwater Ensemble & Salon Joussour

The Art of the Trio

Music is a great way to lose track of time, an effect that it shares with any engrossing piece of art. Read more

De Staalmeesters

‘When Mozart performed, he played Mozart. And he improvised. In that respect, I might be closer to the old composers than many contemporary classical musicians.’ Read more

Closer

In intimate settings of duos and trios Vinsent Planjer explores the sonic possibilities of percussion in combinations with a range of instruments. Read more
