Band history in Belgium: A lot of folk and world music between 1999 and 2005: Fra Maçon, Netel, Vuelta, Litton Baroï Band, griff and the Rémi Decker Trio . Also faszoladuda (folk/impro) and sons uniques (Astor Piazzolla compositions). For the moment regularly playing gigs with comptoir du désir (swingjazz & fun). Recently I also got involved in the "Edward Almost Sextet" (jazzquintet) and "De schapen zijn verdronken" (singer and strings).
In the domain of contemporary art and music: during the last year I've been creating, composing and playing a performance for one dancer and one double bassist, entitled "the Wronski Feint", with Cie Galothar . Also been playing with the Nadar Ensemble for contemporary music.
For the future a new group ( Afro-Indian Swing Syndicate ) has been formed, featuring Kinobe Herbert and Suchet Malhotra . I've also been playing CD-recordings for " Mystique " in New Delhi, India, during winter 2007-2008. Still to be released.
