about

With great pleasure and pride, Jazz & Worldmusic Agency presents the new album from the Ben van den Dungen Quartet, "Obsession Blues." The album was recorded during a concert at Saline Royale in Arc-et-Senans, France. This concert was the second in a series of concerts co-organized with the French painter Charles Belle in France. The repertoire on the CD consists of various blues-related pieces and compositions inspired by them. This album is composed of our original work.

Ben van den Dungen on the new album:
"This is the fifth album of my quartet. It captures a moment in time when I felt the urge to delve deeper into the Blues in general. The concert was quite an experience. I had collaborated with the French painter Charles Belle once before. Charles creates impressive and highly explosive paintings. At the same time, they also exude a sense of intimacy. The concert took place in an old factory of a salt mine, which is an inspiring place in itself. For this occasion, Charles Belle wanted to create two paintings during the concert, which meant we had to play continuously for over three hours. At some point, you enter a trance. Before I knew it, three hours had passed. From the entire concert, we selected some pieces to include on the CD."

On behalf of the Ben van den Dungen Quartet, we wish you a great listening experience with "Obsession Blues."
