about

Filiaal 1

Recorded February 3 at Centrum voor Nieuwe Muziek, Middelburg, the Netherlands, by Chris Weeda.
Editing by Dick Lucas.

"The nine compositions manoeuvre between Monk-ish bravoure and pointed lyricism, but the balance is perfect. Scheen is a master in creating space; he not only knows when to play which note, but also knows when to release it, and even when to skip it" (NRC - daily paper)

"The balance between composition en improvisation and the diversity in composition-models is very well done. Scheen works with coincidence. How capricious his thoughts and music might be, it always got a certain logic and transparency. Scheen is a versatile musician with a strong identity" (JazzNU magazine)

"Most of the pieces are witty little musical puzzles but the erudition is not overbearing." (The Wire magazine)

"With Scheen, hidden irony and alienating distance generate subcutaneous dimensions. His versatility is marvelous" (Trouw - daily paper)

"Sonorous, fresh, masterful pianoplaying" (Jazz Freak magazine)

"In stead of etheric sketches, Scheen links his free associations to recognizable, measured musical elements, executed in a virtuoso manner" (Volkskrant - daily paper)
