Dick de Graaf turns 70 years this Fall and because of that he releases a new album: “Lifeline”. The record is the successor of “Festive” for which Dick was awarded with an Edison Jazz Oeuvre Award (Dutch Grammy for Lifetime Achievement).
Dick describes the sound of the new album as ‘Hybrid Jazz’. He speaks of ‘The re-shaping of existing jazz forms’, meaning that Dick de Graaf’s motto always has been adding his own ideas about jazz and related styles to the rich tradition. Now doing so for over 40 years, on Lifeline Dick comes up with six new compositions and two arrangements of works by Charles Mingus.
