Trompettiste Suzan Veneman nodigt Grammy Award winnende drummer Kyle Swan (Chicago, VS) uit voor een muzikaal dialoog aan te gaan voor dit concert. Een brug slaan tussen twee werelden via jazzmuziek: niets nieuws, wel noodzakelijk.
What better way to build a bridge between two worlds than with music? This concert would be one of the many examples, exploring the realm of jazz tradition with much adventure, skill and dedication. Suzan and Kyle met playing jazz during the 'Jazz Rising Stars Program' by the Steans Institute, at Ravinia (Illinois, USA). These gifted musicians will meet again on stage, this time in Rotterdam.
Both Suzan and Kyle will present their original work at this concert, as well as songs taken from the standard repertoire, known throughout the jazz world. They will be joined on stage by some of the Netherlands finest jazz musicians: Jasper van Damme (alto sax), Timothy Banchet (piano) and Zack Lober (bass).
Suzan and Kyle look forward to sharing a musical conversation again, after more than 12 years!
