Music inspired by poetry by Broeder Dieleman, Andreas Oosthoek, Juul Kortekaas and others. 

A tranquil piano in an atmospheric landscape of strings, marimba and melancholy sounds. The tone is calm, although the life pulse also dances every now and then.

PRESSQUOTES

MANIA 

Melancholic atmospheric images, on a poetic journey....his music always produces expressive and visual sounds.


VPRO3VOOR12

Posters...is certainly one of the best that Eisenga composed in his life.


TEXTURA

His harmonious music pulses with a light, breezy touch, its animation enhanced by soothing atmospheric design and a general sense of peace and tranquility.


ALL ABOUT JAZZ

Melancholia moves through Poetry of a City like wind through a forest.  The tracks Posters and Suddenly He Sang can be counted as among his best.


MUSIC THAT NEEDS ATTENTION

The tranquil piano sounds are accompanied by strings and a marimba, which together keep the listener captivated.  Poetry of a City certainly impresses me as much as The Border.


FILE UNDER?

The composer has a distinctive approach to drones, creating a lilting sense of waves at low tide.


AANGENAAM KLASSIEK

A moody Dutch version of the Italian piano lyrics by someone like Einaudi.
