Angelo Verploegen: A Handful of Stories
Album presentation by lyrical trumpeter in which he looks back on 25 years of composing.
A Handful of Stories will encompass an eventful life in the multifaceted Dutch jazz scene. Having reached the age of 60, Angelo felt the need to look back on 25 years of composing for various formations such as The Houdini’s, the trio Verploegen, Verhoeff & Van der Westen, and Executive Lounge. For this live performance, Verploegen will reunite the rhythm section of his acclaimed The Ballad Album (2011), with pianist Marc van Roon, bassist Guus Bakker and drummer Jasper van Hulten, now joined by saxophonist Nils van Haften.
