Up-and-coming talent and established names from the Belgian jazz scene

In February 2012 the Concertgebouw and De Werf joined forces to organise the first W.E.R.F. label night.

Many of those artists have grown to become established names on the circuit. But budding talents are also always given ample opportunities. For this second label night we‘ve selected both up-and-coming youngsters and familiar faces. The programme includes the Kris Defoort Trio, with special guest Veronika Harcsa, the young duo SCHNTZL, the Nathalie Loriers Trio and a brand-new creation project by the Ragini Trio, featuring Bojan Z & Sawani Mudgal…
