Music composing / performing

I play sopranino, alto, tenor and baritone saxophones.

Located in Amsterdam I produce, write, arrange and record music projects in my studio. Right now I am working on the new cd's of Soul Brothers Part 1 (70's deepfunk), Kokoura (acoustic afrobeat) and Ceumar (acoustic Brazilian).

I have been performing a lot on festivals and clubs in Europe such as North Sea Jazz, BAM-Barcelona or Arezzo wave. Coming up period I will be busy performing and recording with Ceumar, Kokoura and Soul Brothers part 1.
