"Relaxed, easy-listening Christmas classics in a jazzy twist that will make your get-together or party special and unforgettable!"
This professional duo consists of guitarist Tijn Trommelen from Oosterhout and tenor saxophonist Rik van der Made from Roosendaal. They got to know each other during their bachelor studies at the conservatory in Tilburg. This duo will play all the Christmas classics. Easy-listening in the old jazz style!
Specialized in providing the perfect musical setting for your company drinks, dinner, private party or Christmas market. By arrangement it is also possible to play acoustically outside in places where electricity is not accessible.
Are you a fan of the Sinatra and Bing Crosby Christmas hits? Guitarist Tijn Trommelen is the new generation crooner and also a great singer! Send a message if you are curious about the possibilities.
Useful to know in advance:
Of
course we can play longer (or shorter) than the specified 2 hours.
Because of the high volume of requests, we also regularly play with substitutes who are trained in the same style and have completed at least a bachelor's or master's degree at the conservatory, so maybe an unfamiliar face, but super good Christmas jazz!

De heren hebben twee leuke sets gespeeld tijdens mijn afscheid als bestuurder van de NVM

On a mega sunny Monday in May, we got married at Castle de Hooge Vuursche in Baarn. To entertain the guests after the ceremony we were looking for some nice live music. By coincidence we ended up at ShowBird and so did the Dukes of Jazz. And as it turned out with the wedding location and the wedding dress - sometimes you just know right away that you need look no further. The contact went smoothly, the arrangements were clear, and above all: the live music is still one of my favorite memories of the whole day. The atmosphere and the music were so good that everything melted into one whole, which combined with the nice warm day and the snacks and drinks created a sultry relaxed summer vibe. We also received multiple compliments from guests on how appropriate the live music was and that it completed the whole thing perfectly. Thank you for your contribution to our perfect wedding day!

We hired this group to play at the wedding. Great music, well professional and very nice gentlemen. Definitely recommended to have some nice swing and jazz at the wedding!

The gentlemen played at the reception of our wedding. The music gave the perfect atmosphere to the afternoon! They played at a nice volume that a chat could be had but also enough to enjoy it. All sounded very good!

We hired the Dukes of Jazz for a party at the Arm of Kennemerland. It was a sunny warm day and we had a large terrace near the party room at our disposal. The performance planned inside was moved outside in no time. From the first musical note, the vibe for the party was set, everyone was enjoying Enjoying Enjoying Enjoying! We can recommend these gentlemen to everyone!!! Thanks again so much Dukes!!!

Very good performance, also really suited the congress. Fine as background music and at the same time it really stood out. Received very positive reactions from the guests.

Most residents liked the performance, of course there are always those who do not like Jazz. We as staff found it a very nice musical accompaniment to the Christmas dinner, very fitting.

An atmospheric and great celebration especially so before Christmas with buyers and building partners. The Jazzy Christmas Duo was the proverbial icing on the cake

Had tremendous fun performing Dukes of Jazz at our office during the Christmas party. The music completed the atmosphere, and we received nothing but compliments from our guests. No need to look any further for next year, we will definitely book Dukes of Jazz again!

A musical surprise at the Gijsbrecht in Hilversum. Everyone loved it and was surprised.

The duo played during our wedding, throughout the evening from dinner. We enjoyed the good music and the relaxed and happy atmosphere as a result. Both gentlemen are incredibly friendly and happily improvised when asked! Communication and coordination beforehand was fast and smooth. Extremely satisfied!

Nothing to criticize, tremendously professional act. Met all expectations.

I just had to take a moment to rave about the amazing live jazz band that performed at my birthday party in December. Let me tell you, they were fantastic! I couldn't have asked for a better musical experience, and I am very satisfied with their performance. It was like stepping into a jazz club right in the comfort of my own home! The musicians were incredibly talented. What impressed me the most was their ability to cater to the crowd's preferences. They effortlessly transitioned between lively swing tunes and mellow ballads, ensuring that there was something for everyone to enjoy. It was clear that they were professionals who knew how to read the room and create the perfect ambiance. Not only were they incredibly talented, but they were also a pleasure to work with. I can't express how satisfied I am with them. I have already recommended them to all my friends and family, and I will definitely be booking them again in the future. If you're looking to add a touch of elegance and excitement to your event, I wholeheartedly recommend this jazz band. Whether it's a birthday party, wedding, or any special occasion, they are a great choice. Highly recommended!

everyone enjoyed their musical performance wonderfully at our company Christmas party. Received many compliments.
, Marien
Very nice, relaxed band. The coordination beforehand was pleasant. During the party, the band was flexible with spontaneous activities between performances, which was appreciated. And not unimportantly: the music was fantastic!
, Sonya
We had Rik and his band for our wedding reception and we would book them time and again. It was just perfect! Thank you guys again :) Communication was very easy and quick and they arrived on time and played wonderful music.
, Luc
Very nice performance by the Jazzy Christmas Trio at our work Christmas party. They played nice jazz versions of all known Christmas songs as well as other jazz classics. Contact went smoothly and all agreements were met. Definitely recommended!
, Léontine
A pleasant musical support of the drinks of our anniversary celebration. Besides that just very nice people. Also very nice!
, Erik
Wonderful music and the energy between the band is wonderful
, Marianne
I specifically booked this three-man band. To my surprise, two others came and introduced themselves as the replacements. It was hard for me to send them away.
, Megan
The guys played for a couple of hours during our work event drinks party. We thought they were super good and the music really set the mood for our event! In addition, they are super punctual and arrange the entire build-up and breakdown themselves. No stress at all! Definitely book them!
, Maya
What an amazing act! We hired them to play at wedding and they were so professional and well organized. They set up independently, adjusted their stage to accommodate our guests without even being told and made our evening so special. Thank you guys!
, Rob
Fine men, wonderful music. Exactly what we were hoping for to add lustre to our drinks after the wedding ceremony. Everything was discussed smoothly and the execution was 100 percent in order. Only good reactions from our guests. Absolute recommendation!!!
, Kaatje
Highly recommended! Nice guys, experienced musicians, neat and polite, all in style. Lovely background music, not too loud, you can still have a nice chat. Atmosphere enhancing. Perfect musical accompaniment for our high tea / drinks.
July 2022, Erik
Well taken care of performance. Fine in discussing what we expected from the music to be played. Both as background music at the opening and danceable music at other times during the evening Great how she adapted to the environment (played inside and outside). They made the evening complete for us!
, Hans
The Swing Jazz Trio graced our party perfectly with their jazz music. They arrived exactly at the agreed time and their music was perfect for keeping each other talking. With their background music the Swing Jazz Trio made sure we had a very nice birthday evening. Thanks again Rik. Hans

Very friendly guys who provided swinging background music at our anniversary lunch in a very relaxed manner. Well done men!

Performance was super! Good music and the atmosphere suited the location perfectly. Also heard back from many guests that they found it such relaxing music. Highly recommended!

Mattia and the Matrangas played during the reception on our wedding day. Their game was good and fitted perfectly with the atmosphere of our wedding. Everything went smoothly and according to plan. The communication via Rik was smooth and easy

Mattia and the Matrangas played at our wedding during dinner. The atmosphere they set with their fantastic music was really great! Well dressed and classy modern. We recommend them to everyone!!!

Mattia and the Matrangas are an absolute must. What great musicians, they play at a very high technical and musical level. They knew at our wedding a great atmosphere to put down our expectations to surpass They are very good at adapting to the wishes of the client: during dinner we wanted atmospheric background music and later in the evening more energy (the drummer joined later for this). They did that perfectly! At no point during the evening did we feel it was too much of the same. Occasionally some vocals were added, very nice. They could even anticipate a guest who wanted to sing along!
, claire
The communication went very smoothly. They are very helpful because we did not have a big budget and they thought with us. The men were on time on location and even brought some flowers, that was very sweet. Everyone was enjoying themselves. Great jamming with the two of them, really a mellow jazzy vibe. They were contagious because you could see they were enthusiastic while playing
, Autumn
Nice band! We booked Mattia and the Matranga for a reception/drink. The music created a very relaxed atmosphere. They had a varied repertoire. We got a lot of compliments from the guests present. Nice communication beforehand and we were flexible with our wishes. I would definitely recommend this band!

Mattia and the Matrangas played at our New Year's reception as a background band, which was a lot of fun! They sensed the atmosphere very well and made for a very nice evening! We only received positive reactions from those present. Thank you gentlemen!

Good performance at dinner. These guys knew how to set the mood. Recommended!

Mattia and the Matrangas played in the background of our wedding reception. It was a small room and the gentlemen adjusted the volume of their performance perfectly. Their music created a relaxed atmosphere and we received many compliments from guests. The contact prior to the performance and on the day itself was very pleasant. Thank you gentlemen! If we have a party again we will definitely think of you!
, User
The performance of Mattia and the Matrangas was very successful! A lot of positive reactions from people who were present. Besides the fact that they are good musicians, they are also nice guys! Also in communication and making appointments!

Mattia and the Matrangas were fantastic. They played at our Christmas lunch of work with the theme 'The Years 20'. Their jazz music was of course a great match. They are very nice guys who arrange everything themselves on the spot. Furthermore they are very skilled musicians (if you play an instrument yourself - in my case guitar - you stay frustrated when you see the guitarist playing, class!). Highly recommended for everyone!
, User
Mattia and the matrangas did great at the walking dinner yesterday. Very good musicians, with a nice repertoire. They made the evening extra special. Also good communication beforehand and request songs were even last minute no problem. Highly recommended!
, User
The performance of the guitarist, double bass player and saxophone at our wedding party was great and suited the wish we had indicated. The ensemble was a cosy and relaxed addition to the party atmosphere, without dominating the conversations. The agreement beforehand was also good, there was quick and friendly communication and a replacement was arranged for those who could not attend. We certainly recommend the ensemble.
, User
Great jazz band for, in our case, background music at our wedding outside. The acoustic musicians played outside on a large lawn, but everything was good to hear. All the guests were very enthusiastic about Mattia & the Matrangas! The price was also very good. We and our guests enjoyed it!
, User
Very nice! Thanks to the music there was a nice atmosphere at our event. Nice guys and were neatly dressed. The music certainly matched the movies on the page and Youtube.

The performance was well taken care of and the boys were very professional, flexible and nice to work with. They were open to our suggestions and had a nice rehearsal! Very nice!
