Kees Oosterwijk Quartet

Jazz is a broad concept: from cool to funk, from free to loft, from dixie to beep-oink – why do they all have the same name?
The Kees Oosterwijk Quartet bridges these contradictions and allows us to hear what jazz is: musicians improvising together, on a known or unknown theme, who here and now make music that has never existed and what's more, never comes back.
The listener is drawn into the lyrical musical stories of the soloists and the dynamics of the ensemble.

It's jazz, and that's what we do.

In doing so, we provide original sound that will appeal to connoisseurs and enthusiasts as well as laymen. It exudes the free spirit of '30s dance bands, '60s funk bands and all-time pioneers. Music from yesterday and today, contemporary in its timelessness. Swing, funk, Latin, ballads, standards and original compositions, recognizable and yet different, surprising in taste.
