My new album is Soothing Hymns For Bewildered Hearts out! It's a combination of piano pieces and hymns: compositions with wordless singing, where I use my own voice along with vocalists Robin Kester, Tamara van Esch, and Leine (Klarälven). "Ideal music for unwinding," according to the Utrecht cultural agenda. A hymn is an exalted song of praise—often dedicated to a deity or a hero. The wordless hymns on my new album are an ode to the sharing of vulnerability. A tribute to all the brave moments when we break through our patterns and defenses to truly connect with another living being.
No scheduled shows at the moment, sorry! That could change soon though so keep an eye on this page.
Job Roggeveen is composer and filmmaker. He’s the guy behind award winning indie-revue project Happy Camper. He toured the Netherlands with a large group of singers and musicians. He’s also part of Emmy winning and Oscar nominated animation studio Job, Joris & Marieke. Before, Job felt convenient in his position behind an animated character or a group of singers. Now for the first time, he decided to compose music under his own name. Cinematic piano pieces, with sparkling melancholic melodies, sometimes completed with strings, electronics and percussion.
