Juraj Stanik ft. Jesse van Ruller

Fri 6 Mar

Juraj Stanik is a highly respected Dutch jazz pianist known for his refined sound and lyrical phrasing. A graduate with honors from the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague, Stanik was a finalist in the Wessel Ilcken Concours, won the Pall Mall Export Swing Award, and received the Leverkusen Jazz Award with the quintet Five Up High. 

Over the years, Stanik has performed with numerous international jazz greats, including Benny Golson, Chris Potter and Pat Metheny, and collaborated extensively with Dutch legends such as Toon Roos and Ack van Rooyen. His single Soul Eyes surpassed 10 million streams. His playing is both fresh and open-minded, drawing from modern jazz masters like Herbie Hancock and Mulgrew Miller, classical composers such as Chopin, Debussy, Ravel and Bartók, and contemporary innovators like John Scofield, Chris Potter and Joe Lovano.

 At New Tide Festival, Juraj Stanik invites special guest Jesse van Ruller, one of the most renowned jazz guitarists of his generation to join his performance. Van Ruller won the prestigious Thelonious Monk International Jazz Guitar Competition in 1995, the first European to receive this honor. He has worked with the Jazz Orchestra of the Concertgebouw, Michiel Borstlap Group, and played with international artists such as George Duke, Christian McBride and Roy Hargrove. His album Catch!, featuring Hargrove on three tracks, was nominated for an Edison Jazz Award.
