Lex Jasper

Lex Jasper brings to our ear not only his craftsmanship as a pianist, but also the decades of long experience as an arranger and conductor. The inventiveness displayed in his playing, gives one the impression that he is arranging on the spot.
Add to this, the sublime groove that Frans and Vincent, long time musical buddies, lay underneath Lex’ playing, and one gets the type of jazz that makes you want to get your feet off the ground.  They are all accomplished musicians who listen to each other, play to make each other sound as good as possible, they are sensitive to each others’ dynamic and intensity ranges, and you hear the joy they have while playing this music.
Notes from the Netherlands includes the important features required to make this piano, bass, guitar combination operate as smoothly as it should.
Lex Jasper’s compositions blend so well with the other selections, you find yourself thinking that they just might be standards that haven’t yet been heard.
