CARTE BLANCHE SANNE VAN HEK

During the break and afterwards: DJ GERRI

Trumpet player-composer Sanne van Hek creates her own musical universe, a carefully constructed synthesis of jazz, avant-garde, noise, pop and hip-hop. In 2010 she was invited to be ‘Improviser in Residence’ in Moers, Germany. The Bimhuis has now given her carte blanche to explore the outer limits with the likes of clarinet player David Kweksilber, New York bassist/sound artist Shahzad Ismaily and French improvising pianist Benoît Delbecq. ‘Cool, spacey, almost Morton Feldman-ish washes of restrained sound and gesture’ (Jazz Times).

Celebrating jazz since 1974
