World class vocalist Ibernice Macbean has a warm, rich and full voice, which complements her unwavering focus on melody, and feeling. She presents a wide repertoire from jazz to soul, R’nB and world music enriched by her Surinamese-African musical roots, together with Belgian jazz guitar master Jeanfrançois Prins, whom she actually met onstage at the Music Village, Brussels, as she was appearing with the Johan Clement trio.
Ibernice constantly surprises her fan base with the diversity and artistic width of the many projects she is involved in, performing in her own jazz projects as and as a guest soloist which such luminaries as Paul Michiels and Soulsister, Zap Mama, the Belgian National Orchestra, the Brussels Philharmonic Orchestra, Toney Hadley (Spandau Ballet), Mark King (Level 42), J.T. Taylor (Kool & the Gang), the African Children’s Choir, among many others.
In addition to being a guest Professor at the Royal Conservatory of Ghent and at the Codarts School in Rotterdam, Ibernice Macbean is a vocal coach for many popular Flemish TV shows, including The Voice of Flanders, The Masked Singer, I Can See Your Voice, and Belgium’s Got Talent.
Besides Jeanfrançois Prins, she will be joined onstage by a fantastic rhythm section, composed of German saxophone great Ulli Jünemann, Dutch top organist/pianist John Hondorp, Hendrik Vanattenhoven on bass, and drummer Thierry Gutmann.
