Musician, bandleader, bassist …

Afro Caribbean Roots Connections.

Hostess:
Noraly Beyer.

Vincent Henar is the founder of Fra Fra Sound, and the director of Fra Fra Big Band.

Fra Fra Sound mixes jazz, African rhythms, dance music from the Caribbean and Surinamese Kaseko and brings together a wide range of melodies, grooves and themes from different cultures in a jazz setting.

Fra Fra Big Band was established to celebrate Fra Fra Sound’s ten-year anniversary. The original line-up of the seven musicians of Fra Fra Sound is supplemented with other musicians in the Big Band. These can be special soloists with specializations such as african drum, a brass section or jazz.

Since 2011 Vincent Henar can call himself ‘Ridder in de Order van Oranje Nassau’. He received the award as a token of appreciation for how he and his band managed to give the city of Amsterdam and the multicultural society a face, for his role as ambassador for Dutch and Surinamese culture and for his commitment to (young) music talent and musical education.
