Viola player Maurice Horsthuis develops his own jargon with his ensemble of seven string players plus guitarist. Rhythmic pieces, classically-tinged compositions and experiments with electronica come together during their monthly sessions at Badcuyp. Tonight Horsthuis welcomes a dream guest, Mark Feldman. The New York violinist played with John Zorn and Dave Douglas. His unique style is rooted in both country and avant-garde music. ‘The sheer mastery which Feldman displays… will delight any who admire the instrument’ (Penguin Guide to Jazz).
