Young VIPs regularly presents promising Dutch jazz talents on stage at the Bimhuis. The Joris Posthumus Quartet plays dynamic, energetic jazz. The biting alto saxophone of band leader Posthumus is supported by a tight rhythm section; together the four players explore all colours of the improvisational spectrum. Singer and composer Simin Tander is of German-Afghan origin. For her education she was brought to New York by Sheila Jordan and she has regularly performed with Eric Vloeimans. ‘An authentic talent that spices up her jazz with oriental sounds and free and intuitively placed notes’ (NRC).
