Page | 6 JURRIAAN BERGER Born in Rotterdam, 1976, Jurriaan likes to make music on anything that produces sounds. In his teenage years he played the drums, guitar, bass and tenor saxophone. He then took classical piano lessons, gradually becoming more interested in jazz and improvised music. After long experimentation, Jurriaan decided to study jazz piano at the Amsterdam Conservatory. Taught by Karel BOEHLEE and Kris GOESSENS, among others, he attended workshops by Fred HERSCH, John TAYLOR and Bobby MC FERRIN. He graduated from the Bachelor (2004) and Master of Music (2007) © Julia Free programme. Jurriaan’s musical focus is twofold. On the one hand, he likes to perform freely improvised music that sounds ‘composed’ in the sense that it has structure and form. On the other hand, he likes to infuse his jazz playing with elements from rock/pop, world music (various small percussion, wind and string instruments) and classical music (polyphony). Page | 7 TOM NUTTIN Tom NUTTIN is a young drummer born in Colombia of Belgian parents. He moved to Belgium as a child, and soon after he dedicated great part of his time to study classical music as well as the bassoon. Nuttin learnt to play the drums auto-didactically with various styles of music ranging from Funk and Rock to Metal music, finally falling in love with Jazz and © Julia Free improvised music. He decided to take one step further and formalise his expertise with studying for three years at the Jazzbxl School in Brussels with some of the leading Belgian musicians like Bruno CASTELLUCCI, Bas COOIJMANS, Stéphane MERCIER, Ron VAN ROSSUM, and others. Tom’s talent is evident; the symbiosis with his drums makes of his performances an all-in-one merge of percussion and self.
