Jazz at the Avenue | with Angela van Rijthoven

What to expect

Jazz at the Avenue is a monthly concert series organized and hosted by pianist Harry Kanters and trumpeter Michael Varekamp, with a different musical theme each time.

The fixed band is led by Kanters and Varekamp, who invite different guest musicians.

This edition is the Christmas concert Happy Holidays, with timeless classics and swinging seasonal favourites.

Guest artist Angela van Rijthoven is a versatile Dutch jazz singer and vocal pedagogue who studied light music at the Rotterdam Conservatory and became a sought-after singer in the Netherlands and abroad.

She is the leading lady of the vintage vocal jazz quartet How About Rita?, performs as a guest vocalist with groups such as Jazz Connection, and has her own French chanson project Méli-mélo.
