Maarten Ornstein is a Dutch musician based in Amsterdam. He plays tenor saxophone, clarinet and bass clarinet and works as a composer and arranger.
A musician of astonishing diversity, he plays and composes a wide variety of music, ranging from jazz to baroque and from classical Arabic to contemporary funk.
