Keno Harriehausen Quartet - Keno Harriehausen Quartet (2019)

The Keno Harriehausen Quartet creates a world of sound between dedicated, living jazz improvisation and a musical-compositional language deeply rooted in European culture. From Shostakovich to Jan Johansson; from Ravel to Gabarek.
Originally founded as a classical jazz quartet featuring saxophone, piano, contrabass and drums in Amsterdam, the quartet initially brought together the common enthusiasm for the power and energy that can emerge at the moment of improvised music. With this sound, inspired by John Coltrane and Keith Jarrett, the quartet won several competitions in Belgium and the Netherlands (international Zeeland Jazz Award, Ujazz Award, Mechelen Jazz Contest, Sena Jazzprijs).
