With Peace Orchestra saxophonist Yuri Honing presents a new musical chapter in which boundaries blur and sounds come together. This unique ensemble brings together a rich palette of influences, rooted in the spiritual jazz of the 1960s and 70s, but also infused with modern electronics and an open, contemporary sound.
Inspired by legends such as Pharoah Sanders ( The Creator Has a Masterplan ), Charles Lloyd and Sun Ra, the album is a tribute to musical freedom. The Peace Orchestra defies style labels – it is a breathing, evolving orchestra where tradition, innovation and improvisation continuously embrace each other.
Together Yuri Honing – tenor saxophone, Remy van Kesteren – harp & electronics, Ella Zirina – guitar, Tony Overwater – double bass & bass guitar, and Yoràn Vroom – drums create a sonic universe that feels contemplative, powerful and wide open. Live recordings such as For a Script , Kaïn & Abel and a surprising reinterpretation of Imagine showcase their dynamic energy and collective freedom.
