Although not a musician himself, Marc has been active in various roles within the music industry for many years. As a marketeer, curator, music journalist, booker and promoter, his freelance background is a valuable asset in his current roles within the Jazz Department. His particular interest lies in experimental and avant-garde music, or indeed any scene or genre that is innovative. This is precisely why he finds such a strong connection in working with jazz students, many of whom are tomorrow’s innovators.
At the Jazz Department, Marc works as a bookings agent, promoting our projects such as the Big Band and Fringe Orchestra, as well as a wide range of student projects and bands. He is also involved as a liaison for various partnerships in the region, including Parkstad Limburg Theaters, the Bonnefanten Museum and Agnespoort in Bunde. In addition to his work as a bookings agent, Marc co-teaches Your Art is a Business at the Jazz Department and serves as one of the coordinators of the Orientation on Profession programme.
