Acknowledging your heroes is common in the jazz world. In our new DXD live in the studio series we have asked a select group of European top musicians to recreate one of their favorite albums in their own image. Ruud Breuls chose Louis Armstrong’s Greatest hits.
The reason being; "No Louis, No Me" like Dizzy Gillespie used to say. Louis Armstrong was the true father of modern jazz. His influence on the music is still present. Jazz musicians of all generations still hold him in the highest esteem.
Ruud Breuls, Simon Rigter, Karel Boehlee, Jos Machtel and Marcel Serierse belong to the absolute top of European jazz. They have played with everybody who is somebody in the world of jazz. But what really makes this album special is the love and dedication they bring to Armstrong's music.
Listening to the 8 compositions presented here one realise that genre is completely irrelevant.
The Concert Ruud Breuls/Simon Rigter Quintet gave on a Sunday afternoon was completely sold out. It marked the return to the MCO building for Ruud Breuls, who for years have played solo trumpet in the Metropole Orchestra before moving on to the WDR Big Band.
