Boris Bezemer composes music for instruments of all kinds, often combining them in unexpected ways. His work explores the unfamiliar, where divergent voices come together in a comforting kind of turbulence.
Growing up cycling through the forests of Gelderland, Boris played guitar, programmed computers, and imagined becoming an inventor. Now based in Amsterdam, the composer invents music from the desire for the unknown—that element of strangeness so essential to romance.
Bezemer’s compositions explore a balance between structure and play, often weaving improvisation into composed scores.
