Arie's Concert With Suzan Erens


Arie's Concert With Suzan Erens

BLAOSMEZIEK ”Music All Inclusive”
We, Ed Martin and I are fans of Suzan Erens. We agreed to meet each other in front of the Theater in Sittard. At 8:30 PM we entered the theater to find our tickets. The orchestra was a big brass band “Harmonie St. Joseph from Sittard, director Björn Bus.
We thought this is not an orchestra that suites Suzan Erens. But we were wrong, it was fantastic. Also the voice of Marc Clear who sang together with Suzan was beautiful.

"The Concert Was in Every Aspect Outstanding"

In the Lobby with Suzan ...

After the concert we met Suzan in the lobby. We, Ed Martin and me, could talk for a long time with Suzan. I asked her about “Where in Norway she will live?” She explained to me, near the Pole circle (Mosjøen) in the Municipality of Vefsn. 320 Km north of Trondheim.

From their house they have a beautiful view. And she can ski nearly the whole year through. Her boyfriend Mitch is from Sittard and is a Dutchman. They went there a few months ago and they liked it a lot. Now they want to emigrate to Norway. Mitch is a young man and bolt.
He was very busy at that moment and walking back and forth. Suzan said to me: “That’s Mitch. I saw him, but I was not presented to him. My impression is he is a nice guy.
I asked her about the CD. She thinks the CD will be finished after a while, but yes will be released. I asked her about her singing in Norway. She answered me, that’s not yet determined.

But concerning André specials, “If André invites me, I am available.” So let’s start asking André to invite Suzan!!! ~ Arie

    Thanks Arie for your review and, of course, the pictures. Suzan looks super. And so many thanks to you, Sue, for posting. Great to keep us up to date.
    I do wish Suzan a happy life and hopefully, we will see her with JSO in the future, (though I don't think I'll travel to near the Artic Circle to see her!)

    Dear Arie

    as a musician in the St. Joseph Harmony I would like to thank you very much for your great comments to our concert. It is a pleasure to read that you enjoyed it and that that's not only for the contribution of Suzan.

    Organizing and playing in concerts like this takes a tremendous lot of time for us an amateur orchestra, but receiving a lot of reactions like this one it is more then worth it in every aspect. Thanks !
