ABOUT ME
Independent musician (double bass) in various musical genres. I'm interested in bringing people from different countries and cultures together by means of music and arts in general and link organisations or companies to creative artists in one way or another. I have a lot of (musical) experience and friends in Italy, especially La Bella Sicilia...
BACKGROUND
I got master degrees in law and psychology at universities of Amsterdam and Groningen (NL) and besides my music I have had working experience as lawyer (Court of Amsterdam) and organizational psychologist/consultant with KPN Dutch Telecom (research on multidisciplinary project teams), Dutch state police & health care organisations. Fluent in Dutch, English and Italian (German on conversation level, some Finnish!)
MUSICAL BIO
I studied jazz bass at the Groningen conservatory for one year. I play and have been playing many different types of music professionaly: jazz, classical and baroque music, contemporary music, world music, music for films and theatre.
I am glad to have played with people like: Ernie Watts, Mario Raja, Gianni Gebbia, Orazio Maugeri, Stefano D’Anna, Christophe Monniot, Bernie’s Lounge, Giovanni Falzone, Lawrence Renes, Fabrizio Puglisi, Ab Baars, Ig Henneman, Original Kocani Orkestar, Giovanni Sollima, Rares Morarescu, Riadh Fehri, Kenyan singer Harry Kimani, and many other great artists and friends. With Hector Mann Music Crew I won the first prize in the international competition of live music for silent movies “Strade del Cinema 2006” and with Villa Sonora the Jur Naessens muziekprijs 2007. I am the official dutch-sicilian assistent of the most famous unknown artist Suisse-Marocain from Paris.
