Rembrandt Frerichs

Meet Rembrandt: energy source without off-switch. Very broad interests fuel his musical sense of freedom, leading to new sound worlds and alternative ways of music-making. Pianist-composer; his natural playing ground for improvisation. Both as a composer and performing on stage as pianist, Rembrandt takes a liberal approach to jazz by introducing foreign influences, and has reinvented his sound world for collaborations with superstars of Middle Eastern music. As a composer for Western classical musicians and ensembles, daring them to connect with his non-conformist attitude. Artistic initiator for music festivals, his freethinking approach offering new contexts and musical combinations.
