“Crystal clear harmonies and delicous guilty pleasure hits" perfect for singing along to in the car for years to come"
NRC, Mischa Spel
​
On their 6th album, Frommermann remains close to home. With their feet ankle-deep in the dutch soil and heads held high, the masters of vocal theatre perform exclusively in their native language on this album. Fourteen entertaining hits from different styles and times; forgotten gems, straight-out tear-jerkers and unapologetic belters. Without ever abandoning the dutch language, the Frommermann members expand their horizon and bring the very best from the dutch “polders” -with a hint of Brazil and the West Indies- to your living room.
“NL” is available for purchase at Frommermann concerts, in (classical) record stores or by sending an email to info@frommermann.nl . "NL" is also available for download on the major streaming platforms.

Tracklist
Had je niet die mooie blauwe ogen
Nou….tabé dan
Hoe platter het bord
Als sterren flonk’rend aan de hemel staan
Diep in mijn hart
Nacht over Java
Poen
Ik zou wel eens willen weten
We benne op de wereld om mekaar te helpen, nietwaar?
Nooit een acht
Zonder bagage
Telkens weer
Wereld zonder jou

​
Frommermann’s 10 year anniversary: this calls for a celebration. With ten special songs, or rather 11, because Frommermann just doesn’t want the party to end. A combination of indestructible live successes that finally have been recorded for the very first time and never-before-heard works that set the tone for times to come. The encores that never failed, that one obscure christmas song fans have been craving for to listen to at home, Franz Schubert’s artistic credo, but also the biggest Johnny & Jones hit, a classic Dean Martin and a new gem by Harry Frommermann himself. With contributions by star-violinist Liza Ferschtman and Frommermann’s Founding Father Marcel Reijans the party is complete.

​
Frommermann raises the stakes with BOUM!. The wizards of early popular music unearthed seventeen gems from the (g)old days. The songs are more than worth it to be heard again. Lavish, peculiar, immersive, bitter, melancholy and exotic; on BOUM! the listener will be carried away by the sheer power and joy of the music. The best Frommermann has to offer yet; simply irresistible.

“...an album that can turn a rainy day into sheer sunshine ... A great album with swing, schmalz and nostalgia"
Luister Magazine
​
“If there were to be a festival for Early Popular Music, Frommermann would be the main act ... On Holland-America Line a variety of well executed songs is collected ... Very few artists are still researching and performing Dutch songs from the first half of the 20th century. Fortunately Frommermann still does, with great affection, wonderful arrangements and a beautiful group sound.”

“one of the top 10 classical music albums of 2008”
De Volkskrant
​
“In nineteen tracks a glorious parade of sentiments and styles rusher past … a delightful album.”
De Volkskrant
​
“... More than half a century later the music is still as infectuous as ever, especially as performed by the dutch ensemble Frommermann. Listen to the wacky overture to Rossini's Barber of Seville and the stunning In einem kühlen Grunde and you realize how special this group is. Would the original -that I only vaguely remember from my grandparent's grammophone - have sounded as evoking and technically perfect?”
HP/De Tijd
​
10 out of 10 stars
“These performances project a live-concert spontaneity and energy, enhanced by the realistic, best-seat-in-the-cabaret ambience. Highly recommended!”
