Red Light Jazz: Rembrandt Frerichs Trio
As in previous years, the Wallonian Church (De Waalse Kerk), is part of the Red Light Jazz festival that celebrates it’s 10th anniversary. On June 11th the Rembrandt Frerichs Trio wil perform at the church with a special concert: A Wind Invisible.
Pianist Rembrandt Frerichs is internationally known for his artistic curiosity and innovative collaborations that constantly keeps moving jazz forward. After playing together for more than fifteen years, travelling the world to perform across continents and soaking up many different musical cultures along the way, the Rembrandt Frerichs Trio recorded their seventh album together during the pandemic in early 2021. In two full days, in a former church filled with various antique organs, the musicians chose compositions that had a universal quality about them. Taking the melody as their guide, and keeping in mind their shared experience on stages across the globe, they played compositions that felt timeless, and could connect across cultures.
While touring different venues all over the world, the trio discovered that some compositions shared a special kind of magic that translated wherever they were played. Often, the pieces were based on compositions and themes from different times and cultures; a Bach motif, a Chinese folk song, a whiff of Armenian folklore. Beautiful, strong melodies that touched audiences no matter their background or culture. Like fairy tales told all over the world might have different characters but share the same plot: What it is to be human. The trio decided they wanted to create these kinds of ‘universal’ compositions, keeping them concise and powerful - melodies and songs that have a universal quality, touching listeners far and wide. For this album, they dreamed up music with strong, timeless melodies to try and transpose into song what we all share - our being human.
