In his adolescence, graffiti exerted an intense attraction for Rembrandt Frerichs. He practiced it wholeheartedly and it ignited his artistic development.
Although his focus, for the past twenty years, has been with jazz, the excitement of graffiti surely has been slumbering in his memories.
Until now. Graffiti Jazz is an honest and direct approach to translate the euphoria of illegal graffiti spraying into sound, form and rhythm. Jazz like street art: in your face and challenging conventions.
Rembrandt Frerichs Trio is internationally known for a broad perspective and innovative collaborations that give a new direction to jazz today. The trio performed with top European musicians like Paolo Fresu, Vincent Peirani and Norma Winstone.
Rembrandt Frerichs Trio recently toured with Kayhan Kalhor, an internationally acclaimed maestro on the Kamancheh (spiked fiddle) and classical Persian music. At the same time, the trio shared a double bill with Chick Corea at legendary jazz club Ronnie Scott’s in London.
In the past they also played at Birdland in New York (2012)and as an opening act of the Taichun Jazz Festival (Taiwan), Rembrandt Frerichs Trio played for 60,000 enthusiastic jazz lovers (2018).
