EUROPEAN JAZZ STAGE "..besides the vocal acrobatics of The New York Voices performing at the North Sea Jazz Festival, we also have three exciting new arrangements to offer you.
First we hear piano player Jeroen van Vliet, who wrote the Festival’s Composition Assignment this year. Next, we check out a popular Dutch band called Room Eleven, who bring us a catchy mixture of jazz, pop, funk, blues and a touch of folk.
To wind things up there’s a concert by Mona Lisa Overdrive, a raw contemporary Hammond jazz quartet that's looking to flatten conventions…"  [RNW-host Daniel Frankl]
