Due to COVID-19, the programme may change. Any changes will be announced in due course.
This special meeting with the renowned saxophonist allows us to take a fresh look at our activities and our process of learning. Our guest Hans de Jong will spend a week with us and will give individual lessons and group sessions. Working closely with the Band, we will draw on his experience to prepare the Municipal Band’s concert at the II La Palma International Saxophone Meeting.
Nature outings are planned, during which Hans de Jong will share with us his passion for improvisation and the aura of nature. In the interview, Susanne Aernecke (filmmaker) will explore his long and fascinating life and career during this special personal week, as part of the documentation for the project Solamente Sax.
