Biography
George Hadow represents the newest wave of improvisers to hit the Dutch scene. Like many of the active newcomers, George is an expat, hailing from Devon in the UK. George first came to the Netherlands in 2011 to take part in the Dutch Impro Academy, where he studied with Han Bennink and Michael Moore, among others. He has quickly developed into a mature musician, playing with acute sensitivity as well as unbridled power.
The list of regular groups with whom he performs is impressive for its scale and diversity: The Blue Lines Trio, Mulligan – Baker Project, Terrie Ex/Raoul van der Weide/George Hadow, Aya ba yaya, Almeida/Dikeman/Hadow, Molino, Galm Quartet. George has also collaborated with Andy Moor, Roy Paci, Anne-James Chaton and Joe Williamson, The Ex and Cactus Truck as well as countless ad hoc combinations.
Doek is proud to present Goerge performing solo at the Bimhuis. There is something magical in the vulnerability of solo improvisation which you can’t quite match in any other setting. Look forward to George rising to the challenge!
