Aseo Trio

Inspired by modern jazz, classical traditions, and the rich musical heritage of countries such as Japan, India, and the Middle East, the trio creates an engaging fusion that transcends genres.Known for his refined touch and enchanting harmonies, Aseo, together with his trio, delivers an innovative and deeply expressive sound experience that, as some would say, redefines contemporary jazz.

The Amarte Foundation was founded by a number of individuals and their families who share a deep love for the arts. They wish to support the development of creatives and talent in arts and culture by providing financial means and where possible coaching, knowledge and experience. Artists who are active in the cultural sectors of the Netherlands or the ABC and SSS islands (the Caribbean part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands) can apply to Amarte for the support of projects in the field of theatre, film, music, visual arts and literature, as well as interdisciplinary projects.
