      • Oct 2019 - Feb 2020

      As a programmer at music venue De Doelen, I was responsible for both developing the jazz vision for 2021-24 and setting up the jazz program for 2020. As a programmer, I see it as my main role to present a diverse scope of music for different niches in the city and region. From raw jazz, danceable electro, heartfelt blues, fiery Latin, to straightforward hip-hop and musical adventures beyond any definition. Music is expression. It changes perspectives, inspires, opens ears, brings people together, makes them aware, and makes them dance. Show less
