Kyoko Satoh was commissioned by Fukuroku, a college student at the time, to compose music for the big band in 2016, and since then has continued to interact with Fukuroku after his study abroad in the Netherlands, including teaching him lessons. This time, the two will tour together with young musicians based in the Netherlands who are active at the forefront of the European music scene.

The Netherlands, which attracts great musicians from all over the world, has a great jazz club called BIMHUIS in the capital Amsterdam, and hosts many major jazz festivals in Amsterdam, Den Haag, and other cities, has now become one of the most important jazz scenes in Europe and the world (with American musicians such as Brad Mehldau and Ben Wendel now settled there).

This time, thanks to various connections, I will have a special opportunity to perform with Atsushi Fukuroku (g) and a young musician based in the Netherlands who is active at the forefront of the European music scene and with whom I have had many opportunities to perform locally. We are hoping to present the current state of the music scene in Japan and the Netherlands with a mixture of original pieces by myself and the other members, as well as some standards. We hope many of you will come to the show and listen to our music.
