Art Blakey once said that jazz should be ‘danceable’. This can be Ben van den Dungen’s general musical motto in many ways. He has been on the jazz scene for years. So far he has made 80 albums and played about 5000 concerts in 70 countries. The Ben van den Dungen quartet contains a special combination of musical personalities.
