MJO invites YENTL

YENTL is a music project founded by singer and composer Yentl Verborgt. With the help of great musicians Wout Gooris on piano, Jeroen Reggers on guitar, Jasper De Roeck on double bass and Jesse Dockx on drums, she brings original compositions and arrangements to life. YENTL is all about creating a unique atmosphere. The band takes the listener on a musical journey along lyrical melodies, intimate stories and improvisation. All this against a backdrop of groove and rhythms. During their performances, the band seamlessly blends delicate moments with edgier, more experimental sounds. At the heart of the music lies a deep sense of reflection, dreaming and searching and finding. Yentl's compositions are inspired by ECM albums by artists such as Anders Jormin and Kenny Wheeler. Strong influences can also be recognized from the music of Ambrose Akinmusire and Joni Mitchell.
