BBB12/13
Quartet
Trio BraamDeJoodeVatcher + Guests
€18.50 (incl. shipping + tax)

For this 20th anniversary program Trio BraamDeJoodeVatcher invited different guest musicians for their concerts, thus forming a Quartet (or Quintet, as in Vancouver). The compositions as written by Michiel Braam are collected in the 'Q-book'. They are in no way fixed in form or mood but serve merely as starting points for improvisations. Guests were invited to pick a few pieces, rehearse for a couple of hours and then play. Or, as Paul Dunmall chose to do, ignore the Q-book and just improvise. For a free copy of the Q-book in pdf please send an e-mail to bbbraam@xs4all.nl
