Paulien van Schaik is one of the few Dutch jazz vocalists who can sing with
perfect pitch. She studied vocal jazz and pop music at the Conservatory of
Utrecht where (after a year of study in the USA in lyric- and songwriting at the
Berklee College of Music) she graduated in 1996 with a concert of her own songs.
After hearing a demo with her songs Hein van de Geyn invited her 'to do
something together'. And so they did. What a combination, just a voice and a
bass. Three concerts, recorded live, resulted in their first CD 'Tenderly'
(2001), which was awarded the 'Edison Jazz Publieksprijs' (a renowned Dutch
music award). They performed at the the North Sea Jazz Festival 2002. For their
second album, 'In Summer'(2004) they invited Belgian trumpet player Bert Joris
as a guest. The latest project, this third CD, is an expansion of the duo with
cellist Frans Grapperhaus and violinist Yvonne van de Pol. In the meantime,
Pauline has been busy - with and without Hein - touring and recording. In 1997
she ended second place and was voted best instrumentalist at the "Grote Prijs
van Nederland", (Duth Singer Songwriter Competition). She recorded with
Madeleine Bell in 2001, did from 2000 to 2005 various musical theatre
productions at the Dutch summer theatre festival "de Parade", including concerts
with original compositions and with the group "Girltalk".
Hein van de Geyn (1956) studied classical violin for 15 years, playing pop and
blues on guitar, and changed to bass-guitar in. his late teens. Soon Hein played
in dixieland-bands, but with his self formed bebop group he got awarded "best
soloist" on the 1977 Laren Jazz festival. This made him pick up the double bass,
and start a career as jazz musician. In 1980 Hein moved to the USA, played and
recorded with many great musicians and in 1983 returned to Europe to become one
of the most sought after bass players. In 1990 Hein made the first album under
his own name, a duo with Lee Konitz. Hein toured and recorded with Philip
Catherine, Chet Baker and many years with Dee Dee Bridgewater until he decided
in 1996 to pursue his own career as a leader and a bass-teacher. On some 80
records his name can be found as composer, arranger or solo bass player. In 1994
he created his group BASELINE with John Abercrombie and Joe LaBarbara and
co-founded with Anne de Jong and Joost Leijen the Jazz label CHALLENGE JAZZ ,
for which he is still producing a growing number of successful recordings. He
received the Bird Award and the prestigious Prins Bernhard Fonds Music Prize
(for the stimulation of young musicians and his merit for European Jazz in
general) and was elected as "Best European Acoustic Bass Player".
