Wim Overgaauw ( Hilversum , November 23, 1929 - there, November 30, 1995 ) was a Dutch jazz guitarist .Overgaauw started his career as a violinist and played in a string orchestra for two years. He then switched to guitar and performed with clubs in the US military with Nick Vollebregt . In the 1950s he performed with Wessel Ilcken and later led his own groups. He was best known in the 1960s as a member of the Pim Jacobs Trio and as an accompanist to singer Rita Reys . He also made recordings with, for example, Lee Konitz and accompanied Cannonball Adderley , Sam Jones and Jimmy Raney . Overgaauw received an Edison in 1971 for his first solo album Don't Disturb .For many years he was a teacher at the Hilversum Conservatory , where he included Jesse van Ruller , Martijn van Iterson and Maarten van der Grinten among his students. By nature, he modestly avoided performing in public in his last years. In an interview in 1994 he indicated that he was influenced by his students and by young guitarists like David Gilmore from Steve Coleman 's band . He also composed music for film and television, gave guitar workshops and wrote the textbook "The European Jazz Guitar". https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wim_Overgaauw
