In the same chord, one hears the swing of Eroll Garner and the other the mysticism of Messiaen.

In the music of Guus Janssen, themes, patterns and swing fall apart to show themselves again in an apparently new jacket. A wrong note suddenly turns out to be the right one and problems are solved just as unruly as they are musically.

Quote Penguin Guide to Jazz:

“Guus Janssen does nothing less than reinvent the piano. His cliffhanger choices always sound wayward, never merely cute. Brilliant! ”

This event is a cooperation between LOOS Channel and Stichting Ruimtevaart Den Haag.
