Dutch-Surinamese multi-instrumentalist Ronald Snijders flaunts both a light touch and larynx on his latest LP for Night Dreamer. Always having drawn on jazz, Latin, Brazilian and Surinamese international musics, and bringing them together to form one confluent dialogue, Snijders is known for his pioneering, never-heard-before fusions. This stunning set of direct-to-disc single takes adds yet another cameo to his ever increasing vault of reliefs. This time we hear the musician take up his signature instrument, the flute, over several other instrumental contributions, by a swath of players including Yoran Vroom, Jeroen Vierdag, Mike Del Ferro and Efraim Trujillo. With the classy edge of a classic jazz funk record, Snijders is sure to once again impress even the most seasoned of jazz heads here, with high hopes for an expanded scope of recognition outside his native Netherlands.
