Borderhopping / Anderson-Bennink-Möbus-Glerum-van Kemenade

Past Dates

Borderhopping

Alto saxophonist Paul van Kemenade, a major contributor to Dutch Jazz since the early 80s, doesn’t give a damn about formats or conventions. For 25 years, he has been a free-thinker, suspending the divisions between classical music, pop and folklore with his regular quintet.

In Borderhopping he teams up with German bass clarinettist and baritone saxophonist Eckard Koltermann and his quartet. The musicians’ styles of playing wonderfully add up to a brilliant sound. The already open context of the quintet is emphasised by several ad-hoc-formations within the band, reaching from a duo to a quartet.

Anderson-Bennink-Möbus-Glerum-van Kemenade

With Ray Anderson, Frank Möbus, Ernst Glerum and Han Bennink Paul van Kemenade renders these intentions into a global framework in which American and European influences, modern traditions and legacy avant-gardisms are bundled into a power pack. The expressive fire and the individualism of both his groups promise pure adrenaline.
