In 1982 Karel van Steenhoven, founder member of the Amsterdam Loeki Stardust Quartet, wrote this modal composition Silent Danger for his ensemble. It is an experimental and witty work, a play on tones, chords, sounds and unusual effects. The idea behind it is described by Steenhoven as follows: 'As long as music is without aim, it remains free, versatile, is developing; when it seeks an aim, it becomes rigid, gets stuck in repeated chords.' - a rewarding task for performers, and a composition worth listening to for the audience.

Jazz Triptych takes its lyricism, harmonies, rhythm and intrumentation from an eclectic range of traditional forms and models. As such, one can recognize traits of Waller and Kern in The Things My Baby Does to Me, Gershwin and the Barber Shop in Under the Mood (sprinkled with just a touch of Borodin!) and the Big Band sounds of Miller, Goodman and Ellington in the final movement Couldn't Be Happier..
