Internationaal
The Wolfert Brederode Quartet has been playing on many international stages and festivals. The music of this quartet hovers back and forth between tonal and abstract sounds, between bright melodies and elusive harmonies. The music is playful approached with room for surprising twists, collective improvisation and spontaneous solos. All About Jazz wrote ‘What is marvelous about this music is that it combines a moody airiness with intellectual rigor. The romantic emotionality that paints beautiful images of sound has sinews of
steel. It simultaneously invites the listener with its surface beauty, only to create bonds that hold on strongly as it weaves its spell.’
Post Scriptum
In the spring of 2011 they released their second CD "Postscript" at the famous ECM label. That resulted in an Edison Nomination and very positive reviews in the international press.
