About the album

Two women with two completely different backgrounds: Shirma Rouse, brought up with Antilean music, gospel and soul on the island of St. Eustatius. Kim Hoorweg, who listens since her childhood days to heroes like Jaap Valkhoff, Yves Montand and Johnny Cash. Both young but experienced singers who enter into a musical cooperation on CD and in theatres. They both sing world renowned tracks from music celebrities with whom they grew up.

Kim: “Shirma and I are quite different, but we have a special musical bond. Together we go back to our roots. With my heroes and Shirma, who introduces me to Antillean music, Aretha Franklin and Bob Marley.”
Shirma: “I come from a family that listened a lot to gospel, soul and reggae music. It was very exciting to unite our ‘roots’ and discover how well they musically fit together, even though we look totally different and have quite different cultural backgrounds.”

All tracks on the CD ‘Dedicated To You’ are a re-make of the originals, resulting in a fresh sound, also because of the special arrangement by Erwin Hoorweg for percussion (Martin Verdonk), keys (Erwin Hoorweg) and bass (Boudewijn Lucas).

Shirma Rouse is an experienced vocalist, who worked together as a background singer with a.o. Anouk, Candy Dulfer, Trijntje Oosterhuis and Wouter Hamel.

Kim Hoorweg has been working on her musical career since she was 14 years and is considered to be the Dutch Jazz vocal-talent.
Twee vrouwen met twee totaal verschillende achtergronden: Shirma Rouse, opgegroeid met Antiliaanse muziek, gospel en soul op Sint Eustatius. En Kim Hoorweg, die van jongs af aan luistert naar helden als Jaap Valkhoff, Yves Montand en Johnny Cash. Beiden jonge maar ervaren zangeressen die een muzikale samenwerking aangaan op CD en in het theater. Samen zingen ze wereldberoemde nummers van grootheden uit de muziek waar ze mee op zijn gegroeid.

Kim: "Shirma en ik zijn heel verschillend, maar hebben een bijzondere muzikale band met elkaar en zijn onafscheidelijk. Samen gaan we terug naar onze roots. Met mijn helden en Shirma die mij de Antiliaanse muziek leert kennen, Aretha Franklin en Bob Marley."
Shirma: "Ik kom uit een familie die vooral veel gospel, soul en reggae luistert. Het was dus heel spannend om onze 'roots' samen te brengen en er achter te komen dat het muzikaal zo mooi aansloot, ondanks het feit dat we er anders uitzien en uit 2 totaal verschillende culturen komen."

Alle nummers op de cd 'Dedicated To You' zijn in een nieuw jasje gestoken en het resultaat is een frisse sound, mede door de bijzonder setting van percussie (Martin Verdonk), toetsen (Erwin Hoorweg, tevens dearrangeur) en bas (Boudewijn Lucas).

Shirma Rouse is een ervaren zangeres die als achtergrondzangeres samenwerkte met o.a. Anouk, Candy Dulfer, Trijntje Oosterhuis en Wouter Hamel.

Kim Hoorweg timmert al sinds haar 14de levensjaar aan haar muzikale carrière en wordt door de Nederlandse pers gezien als hét jazz-zangtalent van Nederland.

Joseph Haydn

(Franz) Joseph Haydn was a prolific Austrian composer of the Classical period. He was instrumental in the development of chamber music such as the piano trio and his contributions to musical form have earned him the epithets 'Father of the Symphony' and 'Father of the String Quartet'.   Haydn spent much of his career as a court musician for the wealthy Esterházy family at their remote estate. Until the later part of his life, this isolated him from other composers and trends in music so that he was, as he put it, 'forced to become original'. Yet his music circulated widely and for much of his career he was the most celebrated composer in Europe.   He was a friend and mentor of Mozart,...

He was a friend and mentor of Mozart, a teacher of Beethoven, with whom he formed the First Viennese School. He was also the older brother of composer Michael Haydn.
