CENTRALE.hall

Steve Houben, saxophones
SKR TRIO
Norbert Scholly – guitar
Sydney Christian Ramond – bass
Stefan Kremer – drums

Embracing the tradition and sound of the guitar jazz trio, SKR experiments with the material from “The American Songbook” in a very personal way. The band regularly performs with Steve Houben, bringing out the particular osmosis that binds their respective universes together.

Steve Houben has played with legendary artists such as Chet Baker, Mike Stern, George Coleman, Gerry Mulligan, Clark Terry, Jon Eardley, Joe Newman, etc.
His musicality, his sense of improvisation and swing, his constantly renewed creativity, make him an internationally renowned and recognized artist and an emblematic figure of Belgian jazz.
He has recorded under his name around thirty CDs: from the most orthodox bop to the most electric fusion, including a fresh look of swing music, working with string orchestra, ‘European’ atmospheres or mixing with world music (traditional music from Europe, the Maghreb and Brazil).
Steve Houben was professor of saxophone at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels and director of the Conservatory of Liège (2012-2014).
