Island Jazz

With her charismatic stage presence and warm vocals, Izaline Calister has a way of wrapping every audience around her finger – as her countless hits and sold-out concerts clearly attest. Izaline has shared a deep musical bond with guitarist Ed Verhoeff for over fifteen years. Tonight, they perform with the up-and-coming trumpeter Ellister van der Molen. While the exact set list remains a surprise, these three top-tier musicians guarantee an enchanting evening of both exhilarating dance tracks and tender ballads.

The music of Izaline Calister is a delightful fusion of jazz, Afro-Caribbean influences, and the traditional sounds of her native Curaçao – a signature style that earned her an Edison Award in 2009. Ed Verhoeff has been wowing global audiences for a quarter of a century with his warm, intuitive guitar playing. Ellister van der Molen performs in numerous bands and orchestras and was recently presented with the Jerry van Rooyen Award for top musicians in the Dutch jazz scene who deserve greater recognition – and we couldn't agree more.

This Terrace Concert is an outdoor event. The sun can be intense and the wind can be quite strong near the water, so come prepared. In the event of unfavourable weather conditions, the performance will be held indoors in the Entrance Hall, which overlooks the river IJ.
