AVAILABLE JELLY

Michael Moore-alto saxophone, clarinet, Wolter Wierbos-trombone, Eric Boeren-cornet, Goran Krmac-tuba, Ernst Glerum-bass, Michael Vatcher-drums

Available Jelly uses concise, bright songs as a foundation for its improvisations. Compositions by the band members, who have all made names for themselves in the Amsterdam jazz scene, are interchanged with widely different kinds of works, from Ellington to The Beach Boys, Kurt Weill to Charlie Chaplin and African to Slavic folk music. ‘The Amsterdam all-star group plays intensely captivating compositions and improvises in a very human and heart-warming way’ (de Volkskrant).

Afterwards, free admission: DJ Michael Moore

Celebrating jazz since 1974
