The
Amsterdam Loeki Stardust Quartet was founded in 1978. Its unusual name derives from one of the Quartet's first arrangements: the
Loeki the Lion melody from Dutch television commercials. Their recording of 'Virtuoso Recorder Music' (L'Oiseau Lyre 414 277-1) received an Edison Award in 1986. The jury observed that 'Their intensely musical performance, their great devotion and evident pleasure in playing draw attention immediately to the music itself. Playing of this standard is seldom heard on a first recording'.
