Kester Freriks

"The true miracle in the Bach-Bukowski albums is the plain, almost abstract strength of the music contrasting with the raw power of Bukowskis poetry providing the lyrics. Singer and musician Van Ekeren does not do improvisation as such. Every single beat precisely follows Bach’s score. Music and words are tied together in a powerful choreography; they demonstrate a strong, unique affinity. Big city meets a baroque palace. Neon lights and candles burn in Van Ekeren’s performance at the same time...... ......For us, the listeners, it truly is a gift to be part of this wonderful Bach-Bukowski universe."
