Here’s a nice registration of a new Big Band arrangement by Eric Miyashiro of the famous tune called ‘Birdland’. We played this at the 2019 Trumpet Party and besides Eric playing his part there’s a great solo by Florian Wempe. And the amazing Wim Both playing lead-trumpet. Hope you enjoy it!

Today a new album was released, called ‘Counterparts’. This album is a collaboration between trumpeter Erik Veldkamp and saxophonist Katharina Thomson. They wrote the music for the album, played all the instruments (trumpets/flugels, baritonsax and bassclarinet) and invited a string-quartet to accompany them on some tracks. I was asked to add some percussive grooves on shakers, Cajon and Udu. The album is really diverse and great to listen to. If you want to check it out go to this website (Erik’s site) and listen to the tracks there. If you want to support this music you can buy the album there as well. And feel free to tell us what you think of it!
