Alexander “The Hurricane” Beets Quintet | JazzPodium Amersfoort

Tenor saxophonist Alexander “Hurricane” Beets has been the driving force behind JazzPodium Amersfoort for many years. Every now and then, he enjoys taking the stage himself with fellow artists to put on a lively performance.

Alexander Beets is a musical all-rounder who plays in the tradition of legendary saxophonists Stanley Turrentine, Sonny Rollins, and Houston Person. He caused a sensation with the Beets Brothers and has collaborated with countless leading figures in the national and international jazz scene. Mention the name Beets where wherever you are in the world, and a jazz lover in the audience will stand up, knowing exa where ’re talking about: quality, but also a solid dose of bop and swing. And swing—that’s exactly what saxophonist Alexander “The Hurricane” Beets is sure to bring to De Observant. Beets, just like (and with and without) his brothers, has already performed on stages and at festivals all over the world. His mix of swing and ballads, standards, and original compositions gets people dancing from Poland to Thailand and from Canada to India.
