Dulfer! Total Response

Despite some recent health problems tenor saxophonist Hans Dulfer is still going like clockwork. Not only did he spend another week with his daughter Candy at the Blue Note Club in Tokyo last fall, but with his new band Total Response he is playing Dutch festivals and venues. Dulfer! Total Response, an all-star lineup with the cream of the Dutch music scene, has proven itself last year to be a merciless yet playful unit full of fun and energy. So let’s party and celebrate the life and career of the most iconic jazzmusician of the Netherlands: Hans Dulfer!

Hans Dulfer’s uplifting saxophone sound has occupied a prominent place in the Dutch jazz scene for 65 years. With illustrious formations like the pioneering Perikels, the electric freefunk of Reflud (Dulfer vice versa) and the Japanese breakthrough Big Boy he has won an undisputed position in the international jazz top. To celebrate this and because the saxophonist reaches the respectable age of 84 in 2024, Dulfer presents a new band with renowned musicians that will bring you new songs and quirky arrangements of Dulfer classics with Dulfer’s unwaveringly challenging sax in the lead role. Without a doubt, Dulfer and his band will play the roof off during an energetic set at So What’s Next.

Line up:
Hans Dulfer: tenor sax
Band: t.b.c.
