Peter Jacquemyn

Bass, performance

Peter Jacquemyn (double bass), born in 1963 in Schaarbeek, lives and works in Brakel. He is a versatile artist, makes sculptures, sketches and drawings and is also very active musically.

His concerts and performances are spectacular. With unbridled energy he wrestles with his double bass. A fight in which all means are permitted: Bows (1,2 or 3), dented beverage cans, plastic bags, crumpled paper, mufflers, brass, re-tensioned strings, …
This places Peter among Belgium’s most interesting improvisation musicians with a justifiable international reputation.

As an artist he exhibits in the Netherlands and abroad.

Peter is part of Pianolab Festival 2010
