Jörgen van Rijen - Broeders

From Pärt to Piazzola

Three exceptional musicians enter into a musical alliance. Principal trombonist of the Concertgebouw Orchestra Jörgen van Rijen is always looking for new sounds and collaborations. Kay Sleking is a multi-instrumentalist and visual artist; Gery Mendes is an actor, musician and lyricist. Accompanied by string players from the Concertgebouw Orchestra and other musicians, this brotherhood links poetry, Latin American dance rhythms, layered composition and spoken word. The looping technique is central, which allows musicians to play in duet with themselves. This promises to be an exciting concert!
