TALKING COWS & FRYSK FANFARE ORKEST
PRESENTATION CD ALMOST HUMAN
Frans Vermeerssen tenorsax, Robert Jan Vermeulen piano, Dion Nijland bas, Yonga Sun drums, speciale gast: Frysk Fanfare Orkest
To celebrate the release of their new CD, which was recorded in Harlingen, the band Talking Cows invited the Frisian brass band Frysk Fanfare Orkest. Talking Cows approaches the American jazz style with Dutch sobriety, ‘colored with humor, spontaneous interaction and the willingness to break open structures’ (de Volkskrant). The catchy compositions by founders Frans Vermeerssen and Robert Jan Vermeulen always offer room to a solid saxophone sound, inventive piano playing and dynamic grooves.
