Woodcraft

Woodcraft draws inspiration from artists such as Brad Mehldau, Herbie Hancock, Turtle Island Quartet, and composers like Igor Stravinsky and Dmitri Shostakovich.

This results in original compositions in which a wide range of styles and forms merge into adventurous musical stories, with each member bringing their own musical voice. In the distinctive setting of MOVE Amsterdam, Woodcraft presents their new and current music.

Founded in 2017, Woodcraft is one of the most promising string ensembles in the Netherlands. This boundary-pushing ensemble combines jazz, groove, improvisation, and vocals, giving the violin, viola, and cello a renewed voice within the contemporary music landscape.

A tip: combine this concert with a visit to Restaurant Wils, led by chef Joris Bijdendijk. Especially for this occasion, they are serving an exclusive drinks package: a glass of crémant accompanied by three delicious snacks.
