BIMHUIS TV Presents: Michiel Stekelenburg – Catharsis

Seven-piece band led by one of the best guitarists in the Benelux, according to leading magazine Gitarist. Jesse Schilderink saxophone, Tom Ridderbeekx trumpet, Odei Al-Magut trombone, Michiel Stekelenburg guitar, Sjoerd van Eijck piano, Jeroen Vierdag double Bass, Jasper van Hulten drums Catharsis can be defined as the process of releasing strong or repressed emotions. It is also the name of the new band of rising star guitar player and composer Michiel Stekelenburg. The eponymous album reflects his inner struggles, the search for balance between vulnerability and strength. ‘It is a journey through my soul, a quest for balance between my inner world and the expectations of the external world,’ says Michiel, who formed a band featuring seven top players who draw from jazz, rock and contemporary composed music. Catharsis provides a fresh take on the conventional septet line-up. The modernly arranged three-part harmonies of the horn section are essential to the overall sound. Expect fiery improvised solos, ethereal textures and dynamic compositions. Catharsis is Michiel Stekelenburg’s fourth album. His previous album Onoda earned him the second place in the poll for best jazz guitarist in the Benelux of the magazine Gitarist. As a sideman he collaborated with celebrated artists such as Marcus Miller, Damien Erskine and Eric Vloeimans.
