[1][2][3][4] After paying a visit to Chris Maene’s collection of pianofortes, De Looze started a project using three such instruments, approaching their historical position from a contemporary viewpoint.

In search of challenges, De Looze effortlessly plays with time and space, evoking different moods in order to eventually form a harmonious whole.

[5] The Belgian jazz trio LABtrio was founded in 2007 around Lander Gyselinck (drums), Anneleen Boehme (bass) and Bram De Looze.

An emphasis on rhythm, mysterious and intimate harmonies, from the brutal noise to the light and beautiful, open or preconceived ideas are main ingredients that are balanced out in the approach to the large diversity of ways to create music.

Pentadox is a contemporary jazz trio consisting of Sylvain Debaisieux (tenor saxophone), Bram De Looze (piano) and Samuel Ber (drums).

The trio turned into an electro-acoustic sextet entitled “Fragments of Expansion” by adding Lester St Louis on cello, Nick Dunston on double bass and Weston Olencki on trombone and electronics.

With “Fragments of Expansion”, the ensemble transforms into an intercontinental project with a long-lasting impact, from its start as a residency, to a recording and a first concert at Gent Jazz Festival 2019 to a subsequent release tour.

With this duo project, Bram De Looze and Robin Verheyen focus on creative music with a fresh and contemporary statement characterised by much spontaneity.
