By chance they met in Heusden and soon there was a click on a musical and personal level. Oboist Jurrien Peterse with his broad classical background (The Hague Conservatory of Music) and Eugenie Geurts with her singing skills and improvisation and diversity of light music styles (Tilburg Conservatory of Music) proved to be a downright success in the collaboration.
Eclectic music is a mix of a huge variety of musical genres. It combines characteristics of different styles or movements.
Together they searched for compositions in which their playing views could merge and inspired each other to take on new challenges. They play, sing and talk about their experiences in between, and it turned out to be a great success with standing ovations at every concert.
"Music should connect and be an intimate experience for our audience, and that definitely includes passion, focus and a sense of humor," Eugenie and Jurrien said.
Duo Eclectique can be booked for a variety of occasions, including:
- Receptions
- House Concerts
- Weddings
- Events
- Theater performances
- Corporate parties
- Etc...
