When I was about to turn 65, I thought: why not start a new band, and give it a name that asks for consistent challenge:  Jaap Blonk’s Retirement Overdue. I am very happy these wonderful younger musicians joined me. And since it is 20 years ago that I last had a regular band that played mostly my pieces, this is a New Start. —Jaap Blonk, March 2020
