Finally it’s time to celebrate: saxophonist Hans Dulfer has been playing just about everywhere he can for the last 65 years, and has reached the incredible age of 80. For this occasion, Dulfer presents a new band with renowned musicians and a fresh repertory, infused with notorious Dulfer classics.
Musically, Dulfer has always moved ahead of things. He played psychedelic free jazz and created the first Dutch world music. He was the first jazz musician to collaborate with house DJs. And he reached pop star status in Japan with the unique mix of heavy guitars, beats and sax of the Big Boy album. He was a pioneer of the Dutch jazz scene, organizing legendary concerts at Paradiso, advising the North Sea Jazz Festival, and co-founding the BIMHUIS. Up to this day, Dulfer prefers playing live, at the most unusual places, and with relentless energy. The weekly concerts of his jazz band, previously at jazz café Alto and later at Bulldog Palace, are longtime staples of Amsterdam nightlife.
Please note: this concert is rescheduled from October 2, 2020. Previously bought tickets stay valid.
