Frerichs’ unique artistic vision fosters unexpected connections and collaborations, blending elements from jazz, classical, and Middle Eastern traditions. His approach to improvisation—“There is nothing more thrilling than blending centuries of musical tradition into a single moment”—demonstrates his passion for exploring musical diversity.
Musicians such as Liza Ferschtman and Rick Stotijn have embraced his innovative take on classical music. His collaborations include projects with Holland Baroque, Amsterdam Sinfonietta, and the Nederlands Kamerorkest. In 2021, he premiered a piano concerto commissioned by members of the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra.
