TIES MELLEMA PLAYS PRINCE

Ties Mellema has been awarded "De Nederlandse Muziekprijs" (The Dutch Music Award), the most prestigious prize in The Netherlands.

Ties Mellema performed on last Sunday's "Vrije Geluiden" tv-show. The second piece that he performed was 'In The Beginning', a composition by David Dramm, but actually a tribute to Prince.
Ties added that for his latest project, he has asked various composers to do something with the music of Prince. Ties says that it was a choice not to work with arrangers, but with composers. The result are / will be a set of new compositions, inspired by Prince.

As a first, here's David Dramm's 'In The Beginning', performed by Ties Mellema.
