Reviews
"Hartwin shows how subtle, on the edge of the fragile an accordion can sing."
Folk Magazine BE
"Hartwin's tunes are very enjoyable, from the feather-light to the full-on funky!"
The Living Tradition UK
“Honest unpretentious tunes, swinging like a train!”
Maarten Decombel
Hartwin Dhoore is roaming international stages as a professional musician since 2015. Inspired by traditional European music, Hartwin has crafted his own style. Performing across Europe, Canada, and the USA with bands like Trio Dhoore and Estbel his original compositions have found their way to a wide audience.
In 2018 Hartwin published his book ‘Out of the box’ featuring one hundred of his original tunes.
Hartwin's first solo album, 'Waterman', includes ten sets of melodies played in a delicate but touching way. The album title refers to Hartwin's zodiac sign, 'Aquarius', which means 'Waterman' in Dutch.
The honest and calming tunes on this album reflect the symbiosis of Hartwin and his melodeon; a result of playing and creating music for many years. A "less is more" album well worth discovering.
