On July 16th, 2014 there was a live radio show in Leiden, Scheltema from Radio Sleutelstad Fm. There were a lot of bands performing an evening of music. I had the fortune to play with two amazing peeps: Frans Heemskerk on piano and Tom Beek
While studying phrasing with Joanne Brackeen, I asked Joe Lovano to play one of my compositions for an assignment — he not only played the melody but improvised on it. An unforgettable moment that inspired me to hear my music in a whole new way.
Kenny Garrett’s performance at Regattabar in Boston: a night of improvisation, power, and inspiration for my own musical journey.
