We don’t need to tell our faithful festival followers that Jean-Guihen Queyras – this year’s artist-in-residence – is a true all-rounder. They’ve known this since the very first edition!

You can find him either playing Béla Bartók’s viola concerto rearranged for cello or inviting Iranian and Greek friends over to perform music from the Middle East.

But tonight in the BIMHUIS, he’ll be showing us yet another side to his talent, with his jazz quartet. He’ll be taking the audience on a musical journey through the world of his own jazz rearrangements of classics such as O du, mein holder Abendstern [Song to the Evening Star] from Wagner’s Tannhäuser and Schubert’s An Die Musik – together with renowned jazz saxophonist Raphaël Imbert, drummer Sonny Troupé and pianist Pierre-François Blanchard.

This will be their very first performance in the Netherlands.
