Jacobo Palm

Jacobo played several musical instruments such as piano, organ, violin, clarinet and flute.

As an organist, Palm played for more than 50 years (1914-1968) in the pro-cathedral Santa Ana in Curaçao.

As a concert master, Jacobo Palm played for many years in the Curaçao Philharmonic Orchestra.

As a concert pianist Jacobo Palm accompanied well known musicians such as Dalman from Argentina, Del Orbe from Santo Domingo, Luis Palma and the cellist Bogumil Sykora.

His compositions not only reveal his admiration for the Polish composer Chopin but also a delicate sensitivity for the polyrhythmic character of Caribbean, Latin American and more in particular Curaçaon music.
