Matinee: Bridget van Zundert
Surrounding the delicate Bridget are a variety of characters who, together with her, sing of the world, love and all that is beautiful. Together they create a delightful medley of jazz, manouche and French chanson, with lyrics that are by turns ridiculous and romantic.
“For years, I performed with ‘Bridget and the Goldfish’ in the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany, and recorded two EPs. We even won the Alliance Française’s Prix de la Créativité with my own chanson ‘Nostalgique’.”
“I am now continuing my journey and performing in various projects, sometimes on commission from external organisations. I compose solo or in collaboration with others, and I am fortunate to be able to count on numerous wonderful musicians who inspire me and whom I can call upon.”
Bridget van Zundert – vocals, guitar, banjo; Wouter van Aaken – double bass, guitar, clarinet; Toine Hultermans – saxophone
