I write and perform poetry in Low Saxon and in Dutch. I also sing my poetry together with jazz-pianist Boelo Klat.

 

In 2010 I started a collaboration with pianist Addy Scheele & bass-player Hans Lass. We perform American Jazz-standards in Low Saxon.

Please don't give AWARDS to my photo's! Or flashy icons. A simple comment is good enough as it is.
