Hello, thanks for surfing into my space! I am a pianist, composer and producer based in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. I've studied jazzpiano at the Amsterdam conservatory of music, where I passed my final exam with honors in 1999. Since then I've been working as a sessionmusician with major artists in the Netherlands on stage, in the studio and on radio/tv. I've played festivals around Europe, like North Sea Jazz and EBU jazz. Also I arrange and produce music for other artists and for national television. On this page you can find some samples from my first album, which has just been released. It is a cinematic hybrid of musical styles, all connected to the various corners of my taste. Featuring some of the finest musicians in The Netherlands, including members of the Metropole orchestra and the Royal concertgebouw orchestra, the music is intended to serve both as a soundtrack to visuals, and as an imaginative experience on it's own. Please feel free to contact me.
