I was born in Holland but left home after had been drafted 2 years,for military duty. Afterwards, I start working as a band musician abroad in Germany,France and Italy.

After a concert tour with the “Kurt Weil sextet” in Sweden, I got several interesting offers, to work there. In first place as a studio musician. That entailed working with most of Swedens well known artists and musicians.

I had also concerts and TV/radio recordings with for instance,Cornelis Vreeswijk,Toots Thielemans,Georgie Fame,Clark Terry,”Tre Damer”,Agneta Fältskog,(singer in the ABBA group and also started my own group which became pretty popular as a pop /jazz group ,in Sweden..

Worked as well as a music teacher at the “Stockholms kultur skola” and had a very close relationship and several projects with the “Stockholms conservatorium.(Kungliga Musik Högskola) as a examiner and in improvisation music as well as MIDI technics.

I very much enjoy to have life performances and also like to meet people,so, I worked as well in pianobars for a while and made some cruises with the “Hurtigrutten ” to the North Cape and other cruises to Finland as a barpianist and musician .

My repertoire is from the American song book,60, 70, 80 `s pop music and (as a “halv Swede”), the Swedish national and traditional music. Dutch and other European music ,to light classic and all entertainment will be fit the the public. Of course doing vocals as well. Besides Dutch, I`m speaking fluent,Swedish,English and do manage German and French as well.
