Dutch Focus | Han Bennink, Reinier Baas & Ben van Gelder (NL)
Dutch drum legend and artist Han Bennink (81) likes sounds from unlikely objects. This is why he can play on anything he encounters, from a kitchen chair to the stage floor.

The co-founder of Instant Composers Pool has played in countless formations over the last 55 years, with jazz titans such as Sonny Rollins and Wes Montgomery. Now he will perform with two musicians who are less than half his age: saxophonist Ben van Gelder and guitarist Reinier Baas.
Bennink lovingly calls this his ‘Children’s Trio’, even though Baas and Van Gelder have reached an age and a career path that deserve respect. The three of them have performed nationally and internationally, from the Concertgebouw to the Umbria Jazz and North Sea Jazz festivals.
Baas and Van Gelder have played more than 300 gigs together, and they have released two albums as a duo: 'Smash Hits' (with the Grammy-winning Metropole Orkest) and 'Mokum In Hi-Fi', an ode to the city of Amsterdam. Between the two of them, their accolades include two Edison awards, a Deloitte Jazz Award, composition assignments from the North Sea Jazz Festival, Pynarello and the WDR Big Band, and collaborations with Jeff Ballard and Cory Smythe.
"It sounded Monk-like… They played an insanely beautiful version of Body and Soul. During the encore Bennink jumped from behind the drum kit to play one of his characteristic solos on the floor. The three radiated virtuosity and, above all, fun. The audience loved it!" (JazzFlits).

Program: Franz Schubert: Piano Sonata in G major, D. 894
The series A Genius Is Born is a tribute to the male choir works by the three greatest Hungarian masters of music, so it is no coincidence that the concerts are taking place on the composers' birthdays. A special feature of the concert programme is that StEFREM's personal selection of works by the classical composers is complemented by outstanding and interesting pieces by their "heirs", the Hungarian composers of the 20th and 21st centuries.
