In this episode of “Dancing and the Blues”, Ben van den Dungen talks to a versatile musician. Is he an arranger, saxophonist, author, teacher or composer? He has laid the musical foundation for hundreds of well-known jazz musicians today. The king of Thailand asked him to arrange his music. He received the European Composer’s Award in 1992. Ab Schaap is the guest in this episode, part 1 of 2.
Art Blakey once said, “Jazz has to be danceable and has to have the blues.” “Dancing and the Blues” is a podcast about jazz with colourful guests where strong stories, compelling conversations and a healthy dose of swinging music take centre stage.
