Avalonia 14 May 2010
Welcome!
Challenge Records just released my new cd, Avalonia.
I'm very happy with the music, we recorded with my trio with Clemens vd Feen (bass) and Flin v Hemmen (drums). Michael Moore joined us on some tracks, very inspiring to play with him. At the moment we're in the middle of a release tour in Holland.
If you're interested in the cd, it's for sale at bol.com, iTunes, challenge records, and in a few days I'll post some info in the 'store' at this website....
The first reviewds are coming in. And I'm very happy that the critics are very good.

All best,
Harmen
February, tour USA and Canada 10 Feb 2010
Hi,
Thanks for visiting this website.
I added some new music, some new bandinfo...
In december I played some very cousy duo concerts with the Belgium guitarist
Philip Catherine. We played some of his tunes, some by me. I liked the vibe, very intimate, not too much wanting, just enjoying. We decided to play more together, so to be continued..
In january the Michael Moore Quartet 'Fragile' toured in Holland and Belgium.
We played about a dozen concerts, everytime a different repertoire. Michael writes so much music, and all great inspiring stuff. In february we'll record our second album.
More "February, tour USA and Canada"...

Hi,
Didn't update this site for a long time: from now on I'll try to update this site weekly.
Our sons Bendt and Finn are doing great, 4 months old now, still the nights are very short,
can't remember the last time I slept 6 hours in a row...
But it's great!
I'm very much looking forward to November, I'll play a lot of concerts with very nice musicians.
At home 29 Jul 2009
Welcome,
At the moment I'm at home for about one month. Esther and I are very happy with are two boys, Bendt and Finn. They're great. The nights are very short, it feels like touring...
And I'm very happy the boys accept the piano and music in the house, in fact they seem to relax even more while listening..
Being at home gives me a lot of time to listen to music.
So I'm listening a lot to the recordings of my new cd with my trio. You can listen to some rough mixes on this website. I'm very happy with the music we recorded.
Bendt and Finn Fraanje 27 Jun 2009
Some weeks ago I recorded the film score for the Werner Herzog Movie 'My son, my son, what have ye done.(Music by Ernst Reijseger). Nine months ago I took some other shots for 'My son, my son, this is what I've done'
