ABOUT

Floris Kappeyne (1995) is a pianist, composer and active in the Amsterdam jazz scene for 10 years. With a background in jazz and classical piano, and a special interest in bringing together American jazz and the European classical world, Floris leads several projects such as the Floris Kappeyne Trio and Echo. He also plays as a sideman with bands such as the Tijs Klaassen Quintet, Anti Panopticon and the Motet. As part of the Week of Jazz 2021 he received a composition commission for the Echo collective. The collective consists of a unique ensemble with nine singers, synthesizer, two pianos and percussion. Together they create an interdisciplinary performance, a true gesamtkunstwerk. His most recent album in collaboration with Zennez records 'Closer' with the Floris Kappeyne Trio was well received by national and international press.  

"They let their easygoing grooves patiently emerge and grow, wander from warm harmony to slight dissonance and back, then fade out as naturally as a dream. [...] Whether the ears consciously pick them up or not, all the small layers make the experience feel not quite of this world yet closer to something outside it." - Geno Thackara, All About Jazz

From the liner notes of the album that Floris wrote personally:

"As the world begins to recover from the pandemic, the daily grind can be overwhelming. Through my compositions, I aim to transport listeners to a calming, serene world. Using a blend of acoustic and electronic instruments, we created sounds reminiscent of nature and the comfort of home. To fully capture this feeling, we recorded our album in a cozy living room, with a crackling fireplace and a beloved dog by our side. Together in one room, we sought to create a sense of connection and intimacy that can be felt through each note."
