Stefano Rivoir says:

"He's great, to me. With his shots, he makes you feel on stage, side by side with the musicians. The intimacy his photos reveal is kind of unique... there's plenty of band photographers out there, but none of them seems to be able to take you with him there *on stage*, and take pictures of the *music* too, as he does."

Alberto Ferrero says:

"Cees is a photographer who is never absent-minded. If you look at his photos you will find only wonderful shots representing musicians. His passion for music and photography is clear as well as his sensitivity in taking outstanding moments.
There is never triviality in his photos, but always the essential quality of the artist during his performance. For every lover of these two arts, Cees’s images are a cornerstone. Every time Cees sends Flickr a set of photos it’s undoubtedly a joy for all the fans.
Very often I cannot find original enough words to express all my admiration and my thanks for everything Cees makes us enjoy.
Thanks a lot Cees"
