Award-winning Dutch violinist Tim Kliphuis has created a new style embracing classical, gypsy-jazz and folk. Hailed as a ‘current-day improvising Paganini’, his inclusive and innovative approach has thrilled audiences and is influencing a new generation of string players.

Founded in 2006, Tim’s trio combines jaw-dropping virtuosity with mesmerising improvisations and presents a genre-bending mix of musical styles. Tim’s new realisation of Gershwin’s Rhapsody explores the composer’s inspired melodies and jazzy syncopations more extensively than more rigid traditional interpretations often do.
