‘I am a team player’ He is not interested in a beautiful solo and he rarely makes music alone. Jelle Maas likes making music together with others. ‘That interaction, the teamwork in an orchestra is absolutely fantastic. An orchestra cannot be too big for me.’ He has been playing for years in Ede’s brass band. What he likes most is music with a story – symphonies, overtures, film music and musicals. ‘From baroque to rock.’ On the clarinet. ‘Because of its warm sound, especially that of the base.’
