	Han Bennink
		Han Bennink's father was a percussionist in a symphony orchestra who also played clarinet and tenor saxophone; when Bennink was a teenager he used to accompany his father on the drums and then played in his dance bands.
		Bennink is well known for an unconventional approach to his kit - feet on the drums, playing his mouth, setting fire to the high hat - but also for using anything that comes to hand as a sound- or rhythm-generating source, for example a pizza box in his duo with Eugene Chadbourne.
		Han Bennink continues to work with an enormous range musicians from around the world, younger pianists from The Netherlands such as Cor Fuhler and Michiel Sheen, and in the wonderful trio BBG with Michiel Borstlap and bass player Ernst Glerum.

	Han Bennink (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Since the mid 1960s, Dutch percussionist Han Bennink has been an entrenched member of the avant-garde jazz elite, thanks to his colorful, synergistic, always playful and always masterful drum work, which has allowed him to be successful in virtually any context, at any style of jazz.
		Bennink is especially famous for his inventive approach to his kit, which has included the use of various unconventional rhythm-making devices, including pieces of wood, sheet metal, and even pizza boxes.
		It's a huge, wild, anarchic affair on which Bennink employs a gigantic kit including tablas, metal percussion, extra drums, and a primitive drum machine, as well as trombone and clarinet, and, as the release's liner notes indicate, "anything/everything," which included bizarre found objects and wordless vocals.

		He is notoriously hard on sticks, habitually breaking several per gig, often to the peril of members of the audience.
		Bennink learned from his father, who was in a radio orchestra and did many commercial engagements in bands accompanying dancers and singers.

		Han Bennink and Dave Douglas have great fun here turning some standards inside out and developing their rapport through their own material.
		To some the thought of a drum/trumpet duet recording would seem unthinkable but they manage to sound like an orchestra, such is their use of space and their obvious enjoyment in each others company.
		Those of you in New York can catch Dave and Han with Misha Mengelberg and Brad Jones in the Autumn (Fall!) Buy this CD and bask in the sound of two jazz giants at the top of their form.

	Brodie West + Han Bennink
		Han Bennink has become a regular visitor to Toronto in recent years, where there’s a sturdy core of enthusiasts for his brand of reliable (and sometimes inspired) mayhem.
		Bennink and local saxophonist Brodie West first met in 2000, and the drummer later had West sit in on a couple Toronto gigs; they’ve been performing as a duet since 2003.
		Bennink himself sounds fine, though relatively restrained, and he gets one solo spot (“Traps,” which includes his stick-in-the-mouth party-piece).

	Han Bennink : Post Improvisation, Vol. 1: When We're Smilin' - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Basically, Bailey asks Bennink what he's doing, to which the drummer replies, "practicing, of course." Bailey gets the idea that Bennink should record his practice and send it to him and he will do the same, after which each man will record over what the other has done.
		Here, Bailey and Bennink had the benefit of being able to hear the other's improvisations without having to react in the immediate now, the heat of the moment.
		The skittering of Bennink's brushes, incessant and maddeningly crystalline in their crazy vision, are answered straightforwardly by Bailey's muted, over-tuned high strings and rubbery under-tuned lows; he slips approximations of chords through the drumming patterns and scratches for effect as Bennink begins playing bird calls.

	CD Review of Han Bennink & Terrie Ex - The Laughing Owl on Atavistic @ jazzreview.com
		Not many jazz drummers would record an album of free improvisations with a guitarist from a political ethno-punk rock band -- but Han Bennink is, of course, no ordinary jazz drummer.
		I've seen him play: the guy's a brilliant madman, full of zany, unpredictable antics yet he's always visceral, powerful and above all, musical, in a manner that suggests a gene-splicing experiment aimed at crossing Chico Marx and Milford Graves.
		Bennink is always making with The Rhythm (abstract & playful, yes, but it's there); Terrie Ex's guitar - perhaps because of his "rock" background - is raw, earthy and visceral, avoiding the dry, ponderous "cerebral" sound that some free-improvisors fall prey to.

	Misha Mengelberg and Han Bennink in Berlin
		Pianist Misha Mengelberg and drummer Han Bennink, two father figures of Dutch jazz and free improvisation, appeared for a duo concert at Festsaal Kreuzberg in Berlin, Germany on April 23, 2006.
		More than once, Bennink left his drum kit to play on the stage floor or hit his cymbals with his chair, while Mengelberg stoically improvised Powell-like single-note lines or hymn-like chords, in contrast to Bennink's thunder.
		Mengelberg and Bennink's duo revealed not only how vital and entertaining contemporary jazz improvisation can sound, but also that it appeals to an audience as diverse as the one at Berlin Kreuzberg, whose ovations were rewarded with two encores.

		Drummer Han Bennink has spent the last four decades having a go at it with just about every improviser he crosses paths with.
		And while it would be hard to pin down pinnacles, his ongoing jousts with pianist Misha Mengelberg remain one of the best places to hear his madcap repartee.
		Bennink draws on his encyclopedic knowledge of the tradition of jazz drums, kick-swinging things along with split-time shuffles, acrobatic paradiddles, and high-flying freedom.
