A jazzy weekend ahead Written by Taeke S. Tuinstra Tuesday, 22 March 2011 Section Blog / Category Concert announcement Jurriaan Leijen in action For people like me, that is, people living a bit north of Amsterdam, The Netherlands, there are opportunities coming up for having a great jazz weekend between Friday 25 March and Sunday 27 March. First there is a small but very cozy jazz festival named "Slagkracht" or "Jazztival" of which I am not sure. Anyway it is held in Provadja, Alkmaar. On Friday and Sunday there is a total of 5 Hammond jazz gigs on this festival which I list below: Friday, March 25, 20:45, Cantaloupe Huib Folmer - Sopranosax Ronald de Rochemont - Bass Christiaan Seemann - Hammond organ Bram de Visser - Drums Friday, March 25, 23:45, Juicy Organism Ab Dekker - Drums Jurriaan Leijen - Hammondorgan Ton Mulders - Guitar Dick Remelink - Tenorsax Frank Stolwijk - Tenorsax Sunday, March 27, 15:45, New Morning Tim Eijmaal - Guitar Lex Geerlings - Basgitaar Maarten Helsloot - Hammond organ Jeroen Vrolijk - Drums Sunday, March 27, 17:45, The fabulous Jets Freek Kroon - Drums Elvis Sergo - Hammondorgan Wouter Wierda - Sopranosax Sunday, March 27, 21:45, Wild Hunt Erik H. Blok - Trombone Sebastiaan Cornelissen - Drums Elvis Sergo - Hammond organ Jaap Winder - Altsax Refer to the festivals website for a complete program. On Saturday there's an interesting line up also, but nope, no organ jazz. If you are really dissapointed by that you could consider going to Middelie - drifting away from Amsterfam even a bit further - to listen to Rob Mostert. He just returned from the USA for recording a session with Rudy van Gelder who is responsible for innumerable Hammond jazz recordings. Anyhow, no complaining about a lack of things to do. Enjoy !
