BENJAMIN HERMAN QUARTET

Benjamin Herman is one of today’s most well known and remarkable saxophone players not just because of his energetic playing and solid sound, but sheer versatility. He collaborates with everybody, from poets to rappers and from Candy Dulfer to Misha Mengelberg, making him a key figure on the current Dutch music scene. ‘Herman is an alto saxophonist with a penchant for hyperkinetic jazz, not to mention a wicked sense of humor’ (Downbeat).
