News From NY
Friday, 21 May 2010

Finally some time to update this site again. Just came back from Europe after playing the first European concerts with my NY quartet. The audience gave us a warm welcome and we can't wait for our next longer European Tour that will take place from the 21st of March till the 3th of April 2011. We're also planning a new cd recording, please stay tuned for more updates about this recording.

So, what's going on in the coming months? In the coming week, I will be performing in NY with a band I co-lead called Roscopaje feat. Scott Dubois, Pascal Niggenkemper and Jeff Davis. As a sideman I will be performing with the trio of Pascal Niggenkemper with special guest Tom Rainey in drums. In the beginning of June I will be going to Belgium again for 10 days to play some concerts with the great baritone saxophonist Bo Van der Werf and I will also be participating in the Baldwin Project, a retake of the beautiful cd with poems by James Baldwin my dear friend Pierre Van Dormael made with vocalist David Linx and many others. 

In the summer I will be working on a classical composition for string quartet, voice, piano and saxophone. More info about this project soon.

I will also be mixing and mastering the new Narcissus cd that will be released this October on W.E.R.F.

In the fall I will tour with Narcissus, my quartet with Bill Carrothers and I will be joining the band Octurn for their great Gamelan project with the contemporary ensemble Ictus. More Tour Dates will be added soon to the Calendar.
