Wilbert de Joode contrabass Amsterdam the Netherlands 1955 His individual style and musicality transforms the double bass into an equal partner in the most varied ensembles.

She shows what the harp as a solo instrument is capable of and by doing so succeeds in surprising the most sophisticated ears. Her repertoire is varied and colourful. She places her instrument just as convincingly against a baroque background as she does in a wholly contemporary context. Godelieve Schrama, who once said that she 'just wanted to see what she could get out of the instrument, experienced in the past years a grateful audience and a quick succession of domestic and foreign music prizes, including the highest award given to musicians by the Dutch state. The English professional press praised her 'sharp characterizing' and her 'almost virile style'. Dutch critics called her playing 'astounding', 'masterly' and 'exciting'. http://www.northwestrecords.com/Pages/TheLibrary/concerti_content.html |
