My name is Yvonne, raised in Twente and now living in Nijmegen. Music has always been an important part of my life. Music was constantly playing in the house: if there was no CD with classical music playing, my father would improvise jazz on the grand piano, or my mother would sing children's songs to us. Just as Agnetha (ABBA) sings in Thank You for the Music, "Mother says I was a dancer before I could walk, she says I began to sing long before I could talk," the same applied to me. My parents told me I was singing myself to sleep.

Music has the power to connect people, amaze, move, remind and comfort. It fills me with energy and gives me satisfaction to raise my voice to touch audiences in special moments.

Jazz music is a versatile genre. You have relaxed sounds of standards like Summertime and The girl from Ipanema, but also swinging energy of It don't mean a thing, if it ain't got that swing. Jazz offers room for improvisation, making each performance unique and surprising again and again. I am happy to visit with piano and/or guitar accompaniment to sing a set of beautiful jazz songs. I provide the instruments, amplification and a microphone. The cost depends on the occasion, the length of the performance, the instrumentation and the available equipment (excluding VAT and travel expenses).
