RONNIE CUBER & REIN DE GRAAFF TRIO: BARITONE EXPLOSION!
Special guests: Jan Menu en Rik van den Bergh
Ronnie Cuber, Jan Menu, Rik van den Bergh baritonsax, Rein de Graaff piano, Marius Beets bas, Eric Ineke drums
Ronnie Cuber is recognized worldwide as the number one baritone saxophone player. Like no other he is able to play this huge instrument in a flexible way. Cuber collaborated with every leading musician from Lionel Hampton to Aretha Franklin and from B.B. King to Frank Zappa.
It’s already five years since the American legend has performed at the Bimhuis. ‘Cuber has still got it all’, wrote de Volkskrant. ‘His grainy leads were exhilarating and his brawny no-nonsense approach was a feast to behold.’
Guests are Jan Menu, who has had the honorable job of filling in for Cuber in the Mingus Big Band, and Rick van den Bergh of Rotterdam Jazz Orchestra. The three baritone sax players will be accompanied by the trio of pianist and ‘Prof. Bop’ Rein de Graaff, who has brought over jazz heroes from the States to the Netherlands for decades now.
