Steven Bernstein live in Heerlen

Experience Steven Bernstein live on July 9th

Steven Bernstein will perform at Parkstad Limburg Theaters in Heerlen, Netherlands on July 9, 2026. Bernstein is a highly regarded American trumpeter, composer, and arranger known for his eclectic musical style. Often described as bridging jazz, klezmer, and various global music traditions – particularly Balkan, Cuban and New Orleans jazz – his work frequently incorporates historical research into reimagined sounds. He leads several ensembles including the Hot 97 Orchestra and Spanish Fly, each exploring distinct sonic palettes. Bernstein’s compositions often feature unusual instrumentation and a playful approach to genre conventions.
