<strong>Young trios conquer the Dutch jazz scene with close-knit interplay.</strong> The Floris Kappeyne Trio and the Matthias Van den Brande Trio are very close. First of all, they share the same double bassist and drummer. On top of that, they both have released their new albums on ZenneZ Records. Aside from the similarities, they distinguish themselves through their different vantage points and rich musical contrasts. For the recording of the album Closer, Floris Kappeyne, Tijs Klaassen and Wouter Kühne travelled to a castle in the South of France. Huddled together in one room they recorded while using the close-miking technique, making the album sound incredibly near and intimate. In his compositions, pianist Floris Kappeyne assimilates his fascinations for bebop, classical music, and poetry. Mutual friendship and a strong musical connection form the basis of the Matthias Van den Brande Trio. Saxophonist Matthias Van den Brande has lived everywhere from his native Belgium tot he United States. His melodic compositions are rooted in jazz tradition. At the same time, his trio sounds contemporary and accessible. Their first album, Three Sides of a Coin, will be released in June. Your cookie settings are blocking Spotify.
