More about music

As a music teacher and choir conductor, working with different ages and groups is still the challenge for me to connect musically and develop talent. Working together towards the best possible end product is a great process. It is clear that atmosphere and fun are indispensable. But also raising the bar a little higher, with the aim of being able to put down the best possible performance or concert. That is always an inspiring experience.

After my school music education, I started in 1979 as a music teacher and choir conductor. I still work in secondary education. There I am mainly involved in talent development and many stage activities. In all those years I have developed a large number of plays for education, but especially worked a lot on cabaret, musicals and performances with students and colleagues. Together with my sadly deceased colleagues Dik Plantinga and Huub de Koning, I have written and performed more than one hundred and fifty cabaret songs. The Small and Large Bek cabaret festival has remained a household name for the Niftarlake College in Maarssen to this day.

Since 1981 I have been active for 20 years conducting the youth choir Jechonja from Nijkerk, for which I have written a lot of Dutch gospel music, arrangements and musicals. Since 2000 I have been the conductor of an occasional Christmas and Musical choir every other year. For this I have also written Dutch songs and Christmas repertoire. Gospel and youth choirs inspire me the most and my religious repertoire is best suited for that. The recent musicals Bouwen (2017) and Circus Mens (2020) have made me realize again that the love for music and theater connects people enormously and are a great incentive to never stop.

In addition to my gospel and cabaret activities, I accompany singers and choirs and I have written a number of piano compositions for various occasions. In order not to leave this material aimlessly on the shelf, I have created this website, on which you can find a large number of my compositions.Much of my music can be viewed as a PDF and parts of the original recordings can be listened to. These are usually first performances or practice recordings at the time. Even though some recordings and lyrics are dated, they still give a good impression of the songs.
