TINEKE POSTMA QUINTET

The star of alto saxophonist Tineke Postma (26) rises rapidly. It was only last year when she graduated (cum laude) from the Conservatory of music and already she received numerous jazz prizes and nominations. After her debut CD ‘First Avenue’, that got big airplay in the US, she carries on with ‘For the Rhythm’. ‘I’m impressed by her ability to truly sing through her horn’, is what Chris Potter says about his former student.
