Jasper Somsen Invites
Also in the 2024-2025 season, four Jasper Somsen Invites … concerts
are planned on Thursday evenings in Loburg. As in previous years, the concert series is a
collaboration between LoburgLive, Jazz in Wageningen, PopUPop and Nationaal PodiumPlan. For the regular enthusiasts and
people who would like to experience the best jazz from the Netherlands, here are the dates for
the agenda: October 3, December 19, February 13 and April 10.
The successful concert series of the Wageningen double bassist/composer/producer
has been around for 10 years this year and has become an indispensable part of the rich art & culture program that Wageningen offers.
On Thursday, October 3, guitarist Michiel Stekelenburg and saxophonist Jesse Schilderink will be guests.

Michiel Stekelenburg
Guitarist Michiel Stekelenburg is known as a powerful musician who is not afraid to bare his soul in music. The authoritative All About Jazz wrote: "Stekelenburg shines as a composer and guitarist, and … never fails to deliver";. This year saw the release of his fourth album under his own name: “Catharsis” (Challenge Records), in which Michiel delivers a sparkling fresh dynamic crossover of jazz, rock and indie. The album is a musical journey through the emotional life of this gifted composer and improviser.
Jesse Schilderink
The Rotterdam-based saxophonist and composer has been a regular companion of Stekelenburg for years. On the aforementioned album Catharsis, Schilderink shines in the
multi-layered music. Jesse Schilderink is a member of the much-praised Paradox Jazz
Orchestra and Dutch Jazz Collective, among others, and is the founder and artistic director of the Rotterdam/Trondheim
Collective, an ongoing collaboration between musicians from the Netherlands and Norway.
