Wiek Hijmans

Wiek Hijmans (1967) is an electric guitarist, specialized in performing new music with and for his instrument. Collaboration with composers is essential. Hijmans wrote an instrumentation guide for the instrument. 

As a composer, Wiek Hijmans has been creating music all his life. From jazz and rock oriented music, to soundscapes and beats for dance performances.

The main body of his compositional work is a collection of 150 solo pieces for electric guitar. A selection of twelve of these pieces has just been released: Psalms Electrified, the edition includes a book with new translations of the twelve psalm texts.

Very moving to see someone so dedicated to research what I have been doing. Thanks Mr. Aguzzi!
