Ignatius van Loyola – God vinden in alle dingen
Ignatius of Loyola – Finding God In All Things
I composed and performed an original soundtrack for an animation short for blockflutes, guitar, strings, and electronics.
Released on 20 May 2021, it marks the 500th anniversary of the beginning of Ignatius’ journey and tells his life story.
The short film will be followed by a full-length radio drama with more original music in 2022.

Un Chanteur Invisible
In 2019, I played blockflutes for Nico Maas‘ score for the film Un Chanteur Invisible, directed by Hannah van Tassel.
The score (which makes beautiful, creative and prominent use of the blockflutes) won Nico Maas the Keep an Eye Filmscore Award 2019. The poetic documentary about the intangible mistral, which blows across the French Provence some 130 days a year, was made in collaboration with the Dutch public broadcaster NTR.
The whole Un Chanteur Invisible is streaming on the website of the Netherlands Film Academy (trailer below).
