Grand Picture Palace - Grand Picture Palace (2021)

Grand Picture Palace is Anneleen Boehme’s own project: a dream come true. Influenced by classical, contemporary and jazz music, bass players such as Dave Holland and composers like Gavin Bryars, she decided to start composing for double bass and a small orchestra. The result is a mix between jazz and classical film music: a solid base with a lot of improvisation. Anneleen Boehme’s double bass is the lead, accompanied by a group of talented musicians. The band consists of a string quartet and a jazz band (Cedric De Lat – trumpet, Rob Banken – bass clarinet and alto saxophone, Berlinde Deman – tuba and Matthias De Waele – drums) combined. It’s a crazy carnival of deliciousness.
