The album closes with the Beatles classic Blackbird. For a new cover of such a famed song, there must be a good reason. This version is more beautiful than composer Paul McCartney could have dreamed.

After Lunch

Old, New & Blue is more than just an album full of beautiful music. Holland Baroque Society and Eric Vloeimans offer a listening experience that is enriching and therefore really adds something special to the endless amount of music that is already there.

Eric Vloeimans and the Holland Baroque Society work on coloring pictures whose contours have either been just drawn up or are from centuries ago.

Time and time again, the result is a compelling whole of surprising sound landscapes. This is great music for Jazz lovers and Baroque fans alike.

Trumpeter Vloeimans adapts to the ensemble like a chameleon. The Baroque musicians of the Holland Baroque Society also show their flexibility here.

The trumpet player’s sensual tone is framed by the refined silver sound of the Holland Baroque Society. This is a happy encounter. 5 Stars!

Vloeimans’ organic play, which – typical of jazz – plays around the beats of the bars, complements the strict rhythm of the baroque in an unexpected way.
