Together with Alvaro Artime Jimenez, Gidon Nunes Vaz, Kurt Weiss on the trumpets and flugelhorns, Tijs Klaassen on the bass and Wouter Kühne on the drums, Suzanne Veneman presented a highly cinematic performance inspired by daily images we all are familiar with!

“I like to create a certain sound, groove and ambience for each scenario, so the listener can picture the image whilst listening to us play.”
