CALIMA

Like the warm, sand-carrying winds they’re named after, Calima blurs boundaries and reshapes sonic landscapes. This narrative-driven jazz quintet crafts music that moves like drifting dunes – fluid, unpredictable, and rich in texture. With roots in jazz and reaching toward the horizon, their music transports listeners into a place where nothing stays still and every sound tells a story. Melody and rhythm become channels of expression, and improvisation keeps the audience engaged with every twist and turn.

 

Winners of the 2025 Keep an Eye International Jazz Award at Bimhuis, Calima creates music that is as atmospheric as it is captivating – always in motion, always becoming.
