Benjamin Herman is a widely known saxophonist, leader of the New Cool Collective and a Dutch jazz icon, always fresh-spirited and sharply dressed. His 50th birthday party at the BIMHUIS was all about his latest album, Project S.

Project S was written for the eponymous documentary about the Citroën SM, the legendary car used by Presidents and celebrities, including Dutch soccer superstar Johan Cruijff. A Citroën with a Maserati motor, which is a way to describe the album's sound. "Serge Gainsbourg meets Fausto Papetti," according to Benjamin Herman.

Personnel: Benjamin Herman: saxophones; Giuseppe Doronzo: baritone saxophone; Efe Erdem: trombone; Alexander van Popta: piano, keyboards; Rory Ronde: guitar; Manuel Hugas: bass; Joost Kroon: drums. Special guests: Jonathan Herman: guitar; Pauline Koning: violin; Yannick Hiwat: violin; Mara Tieles: viola; Susanne Rosmolen: cello.
