Description
Bentje Braam
There have been two Bentjes Braam, or Bentje Bramen. They have made just as many albums. We are now presenting edition three!
Makki van Engelen drums, Jort Terwijn double bass, Peter Haex tenor-tuba, Michiel Braam piano, Frank Nielander alto saxophone
On the occasion of Michiel Braam reaching the age of 60 in 2024, Bas Andriessen made a documentary about him. The film will feature around 20 fragments, mainly filmed by Andriessen between the eighties and now, including Bik Bent Braam, Trio BraamDeJoodeVatcher and Nopera, about which Andriessen also interviews Braam. To accompany the premiere, Michiel put together this new version of Bentje Braam, with musicians from different stages of his musical life. A new version of his Second Coolbook will be played with this band. That program from 1995 has since been performed in many versions, with solo piano but also in arrangements for the Jazz Orchestra of the Concertgebouw and the Metropole Orchestra.This time with Michiels fellow Penguin Frank Nielander on alto sax, Bentje and Bik Bender from the very beginning tenor tuba player Peter Haex, Jort Terwijn on double bass, who is making his mark with his own project ÖNDER, the exceptionally driving yet subtle Reeds & Deeds drummer Makki van Engelen and Braam himself on the piano.
