About

"Floris Kappeyne stands out as an inventive improvising pianist, and he is downright stunning in his solo performances."

Bernard Lefèvre - JazzHalo (BE)

FLORIS KAPPEYNE is a pianist and composer actively involved in the Amsterdam jazz scene. With a background in both jazz and classical piano and a particular interest in merging these genres, his primary musical focus is on his longstanding trio, featuring TIJS KLAASSEN on bass and WOUTER KÜHNE on drums. Following the albums "Interchange" (2017) and "Synesthesia" (2019), their latest release, "Closer," received positive reviews from both national and international press. In addition to his trio work, Floris debuted a solo piano album titled "Half of What I Say Is Meaningless" in 2020. He also serves as a sideman in various projects, including the Tijs Klaassen Quintet, Anti Panopticon, Alistair Payne's REFLEX, Govreen Quartet and Mo van der Does' Motet.

As the initiator of the ECHO COLLECTIVE, Floris received a commission to compose "Echo," an interdisciplinary piece involving nine singers, synthesizer, two pianos, and percussion, presented at the Bimhuis in Amsterdam as part of the International Jazz Week in 2021.
