The Buma Boy Edgarprijs, the most important Dutch prize for jazz and improvised music, has been awarded to saxophonist, composer and band leader Tineke Postma. As part of the prize, Postma will curate a concert night at the Bimhuis on December 9, 2015. During that occasion she will be presented with the award, consisting of a sum of €12,500 and a sculpture made by Jan Wolkers.
Even before she graduated cum laude at the Conservatory of Amsterdam, Tineke Postma’s extraordinary talent was noted in The Netherlands and abroad. Technique, lyricism, a startling sense of harmony, innovative compositions and an instantly recognizable sound characterize the 1978 born saxophonist. She often travelled to New York to live and work there and become part of the local jazz scene. Thus she gradually built a name for herself in the Mecca of jazz. For For American top notch musicians such as Geri Allen (piano), Terri Lyne Carrington (drums), Esperanza Spalding (bass) it’s a creative challenge to work with her. With her former mentor saxophonist Greg Osby she leads the group ‘Tineke Postma & Greg Osby Sonic Halo’. She tours all over the world, also with her Dutch groups like the Tineke Postma Quartet. Postma has numerous prestigious music prizes to her name and received rave reviews for the six albums she released.
Excerpts from the jury report:
“Tineke Postma has a remarkable combination of cosmopolitanism and Dutch levelheadedness. How a modest Frisian musician made a career for herself with her own American band and collaborated with the best.
…. both on alto and soprano saxophone her tone is direct and without adornment. Her luggage has no room for clichés, snags or frills, she picks her notes fastidiously relying on a great sense of melody and harmony.
Throughout her career the saxophonist has proved to be an excellent band leader…..
Due to her respect for other people’s talents, she leads her own groups with a sensitive and therefore natural authority – a quality that pays off in her sidemen’s contributions, surely lifting her ensembles to a higher level.
Notwithstanding the fact that Tineke Postma is an established name and an unmistakable ambassador of Dutch jazz, she disposes over enough individuality, guts, passion and potential to develop her own style of contemporary jazz both in the Netherlands and abroad.”
The jury of the Buma Boy Edgarprijs 2015 consists of:
Micha de Kanter, Chairman (recording engineer of Mideka Music Recording)
Willem Kniknie, Secretary (director of MuziekPodium Zeeland, programmer of International Jazz Festival Middelburg)
Nicolle Leenhouwers (programmer ProJazz, Jazz070 and Cutting Edge Jazz Festival, The Hague)
Niels Nieuborg (programmer of the North Sea Jazz Club, Amsterdam)
Cees van de Ven (journalist/photographer of draaiomjeoren.com, programmer JazzCase, Neerpelt, Belgium)
The prize and its history
The Buma Boy Edgarprijs is awarded every year to an artist that has been distinguishing for quite some time because of his significant contribution, creatively, to the buoyancy of Dutch jazz and improvised music. The organisers of the Buma Boy Edgarprijs and the concert night are the Boy Edgarprijs Foundation together with the Bimhuis. Recent prize winners are Anton Goudsmit (2010), Ferdinand Povel (2011), Yuri Honing (2012), Oene van Geel (2013) and Jeroen van Vliet (2014).

De Haagse trompettist en flügelhornspeler Ack van Rooyen maakte tijdens The Hague Jazz 2009 deel uit van het 'dream team' dat pianist Jasper van ’t Hof speciaal voor het festival samenstelde.
Voor Van Rooyen is het exact 60 jaar geleden, dat hij aan het Koninklijk Conservatorium in Den Haag afstudeerde. Sinds de tijd heeft hij een geweldige bijdrage aan de Nederlandse jazz geleverd. En nog steeds staat hij z'n mannetje - wat tijdens The Hague Jazz weer 'ns bleek.

“Tineke Postma has a remarkable combination of cosmopolitanism and Dutch levelheadedness. How a modest Frisian musician made a career for herself with her own American band and collaborated with the best.
…. both on alto and soprano saxophone her tone is direct and without adornment. Her luggage has no room for clichés, snags or frills, she picks her notes fastidiously relying on a great sense of melody and harmony.
Throughout her career the saxophonist has proved to be an excellent band leader…..
Due to her respect for other people’s talents, she leads her own groups with a sensitive and therefore natural authority – a quality that pays off in her sidemen’s contributions, surely lifting her ensembles to a higher level.
Notwithstanding the fact that Tineke Postma is an established name and an unmistakable ambassador of Dutch jazz, she disposes over enough individuality, guts, passion and potential to develop her own style of contemporary jazz both in the Netherlands and abroad.”

Micha de Kanter, Chairman (recording engineer of Mideka Music Recording)
Willem Kniknie, Secretary (director of MuziekPodium Zeeland, programmer of International Jazz Festival Middelburg)

The Buma Boy Edgarprijs, the most important Dutch prize for jazz and improvised music, has been awarded to saxophonist, composer and band leader Tineke Postma. As part of the prize, Postma will curate a concert night at the Bimhuis on December 9, 2015. During that occasion she will be presented with the award, consisting of a sum of €12,500 and a sculpture made by Jan Wolkers.
Even before she graduated cum laude at the Conservatory of Amsterdam, Tineke Postma’s extraordinary talent was noted in The Netherlands and abroad. Technique, lyricism, a startling sense of harmony, innovative compositions and an instantly recognizable sound characterize the 1978 born saxophonist. She often travelled to New York to live and work there and become part of the local jazz scene. Thus she gradually built a name for herself in the Mecca of jazz. For For American top notch musicians such as Geri Allen (piano), Terri Lyne Carrington (drums), Esperanza Spalding (bass) it’s a creative challenge to work with her. With her former mentor saxophonist Greg Osby she leads the group ‘Tineke Postma & Greg Osby Sonic Halo’. She tours all over the world, also with her Dutch groups like the Tineke Postma Quartet. Postma has numerous prestigious music prizes to her name and received rave reviews for the six albums she released.
Excerpts from the jury report:
“Tineke Postma has a remarkable combination of cosmopolitanism and Dutch levelheadedness. How a modest Frisian musician made a career for herself with her own American band and collaborated with the best.

The Buma Boy Edgarprijs, the most important Dutch prize for jazz and improvised music, has been awarded to saxophonist, composer and band leader Tineke Postma. As part of the prize, Postma will curate a concert night at the Bimhuis on December 9, 2015. During that occasion she will be presented with the award, consisting of a sum of €12,500 and a sculpture made by Jan Wolkers.
Even before she graduated cum laude at the Conservatory of Amsterdam, Tineke Postma’s extraordinary talent was noted in The Netherlands and abroad. Technique, lyricism, a startling sense of harmony, innovative compositions and an instantly recognizable sound characterize the 1978 born saxophonist. She often travelled to New York to live and work there and become part of the local jazz scene. Thus she gradually built a name for herself in the Mecca of jazz. For For American top notch musicians such as Geri Allen (piano), Terri Lyne Carrington (drums), Esperanza Spalding (bass) it’s a creative challenge to work with her. With her former mentor saxophonist Greg Osby she leads the group ‘Tineke Postma & Greg Osby Sonic Halo’. She tours all over the world, also with her Dutch groups like the Tineke Postma Quartet. Postma has numerous prestigious music prizes to her name and received rave reviews for the six albums she released.
Excerpts from the jury report:
“Tineke Postma has a remarkable combination of cosmopolitanism and Dutch levelheadedness. How a modest Frisian musician made a career for herself with her own American band and collaborated with the best.
…. both on alto and soprano saxophone her tone is direct and without adornment. Her luggage has no room for clichés, snags or frills, she picks her notes fastidiously relying on a great sense of melody and harmony.
Throughout her career the saxophonist has proved to be an excellent band leader…..
Due to her respect for other people’s talents, she leads her own groups with a sensitive and therefore natural authority – a quality that pays off in her sidemen’s contributions, surely lifting her ensembles to a higher level.
Notwithstanding the fact that Tineke Postma is an established name and an unmistakable ambassador of Dutch jazz, she disposes over enough individuality, guts, passion and potential to develop her own style of contemporary jazz both in the Netherlands and abroad.”
The jury of the Buma Boy Edgarprijs 2015 consists of:
Micha de Kanter, Chairman (recording engineer of Mideka Music Recording)
Willem Kniknie, Secretary (director of MuziekPodium Zeeland, programmer of International Jazz Festival Middelburg)
Nicolle Leenhouwers (programmer ProJazz, Jazz070 and Cutting Edge Jazz Festival, The Hague)
Niels Nieuborg (programmer of the North Sea Jazz Club, Amsterdam)
Cees van de Ven (journalist/photographer of draaiomjeoren.com, programmer JazzCase, Neerpelt, Belgium)
The prize and its history
The Buma Boy Edgarprijs is awarded every year to an artist that has been distinguishing for quite some time because of his significant contribution, creatively, to the buoyancy of Dutch jazz and improvised music. The organisers of the Buma Boy Edgarprijs and the concert night are the Boy Edgarprijs Foundation together with the Bimhuis. Recent prize winners are Anton Goudsmit (2010), Ferdinand Povel (2011), Yuri Honing (2012), Oene van Geel (2013) and Jeroen van Vliet (2014).

The Buma Boy Edgarprijs, the most important Dutch prize for jazz and improvised music, has been awarded to saxophonist, composer and band leader Tineke Postma. As part of the prize, Postma will curate a concert night at the Bimhuis on December 9, 2015. During that occasion she will be presented with the award, consisting of a sum of €12,500 and a sculpture made by Jan Wolkers.
Even before she graduated cum laude at the Conservatory of Amsterdam, Tineke Postma’s extraordinary talent was noted in The Netherlands and abroad. Technique, lyricism, a startling sense of harmony, innovative compositions and an instantly recognizable sound characterize the 1978 born saxophonist. She often travelled to New York to live and work there and become part of the local jazz scene. Thus she gradually built a name for herself in the Mecca of jazz. For For American top notch musicians such as Geri Allen (piano), Terri Lyne Carrington (drums), Esperanza Spalding (bass) it’s a creative challenge to work with her. With her former mentor saxophonist Greg Osby she leads the group ‘Tineke Postma & Greg Osby Sonic Halo’. She tours all over the world, also with her Dutch groups like the Tineke Postma Quartet. Postma has numerous prestigious music prizes to her name and received rave reviews for the six albums she released.
Excerpts from the jury report:
“Tineke Postma has a remarkable combination of cosmopolitanism and Dutch levelheadedness. How a modest Frisian musician made a career for herself with her own American band and collaborated with the best.
…. both on alto and soprano saxophone her tone is direct and without adornment. Her luggage has no room for clichés, snags or frills, she picks her notes fastidiously relying on a great sense of melody and harmony.
Throughout her career the saxophonist has proved to be an excellent band leader…..
Due to her respect for other people’s talents, she leads her own groups with a sensitive and therefore natural authority – a quality that pays off in her sidemen’s contributions, surely lifting her ensembles to a higher level.
Notwithstanding the fact that Tineke Postma is an established name and an unmistakable ambassador of Dutch jazz, she disposes over enough individuality, guts, passion and potential to develop her own style of contemporary jazz both in the Netherlands and abroad.”

PHOTO 20151209_EWS9706
Dutch jazz pianist Jasper van 't Hof performing at The Hague Jazz Festival 2009. Van 't Hof is one of the most active jazz musicians on the European scene. During the course of his career, he has been at the keyboard for Archie Shepp and many others, although he is best known for his exceptional solo piano playing.
--
Speciaal voor The Hague Jazz stelde pianist Jasper van ’t Hof een 'dream team' van jazzmusici samen. Deze festivalband bestond uit drummer Marcel Serierse, bassist Gulli Gudmundsson, saxofonist John Ruocco, trompettist Ack van Rooyen en trombonist Ilja Reijngoud.
Jasper van ’t Hof is is één van de grondleggers van de wereldjazz. Als jochie kreeg Van 't Hof pianoles van Harry Bannink en als tiener trad hij toe tot de avant jazzrockformatie Association P.C. van Pierre Courbois, waarin hij snel furore maakte. Hij speelde samen met Keith Jarrett, Charlie Mariono, Aldo Romano en Archie Shepp en zijn formatie Pili Pili, met o.a. zangeres Angelique Kidjo en bandleden van Dissidenten, verkreeg wereldfaam.
