Carrousel is a marvelous blend of two worlds. The borders between baroque, jazz or pop no longer exist: the musical fusion is a fact. Carrousel was awarded the Edison Classical Music Award 2017.
Judith and Tineke Steenbrink, Artistic Team of Holland Baroque:‘During the CD recordings, we were overwhelmed by the antique beauty of the cornetto which blends wonderfully with Vloeimans’ sound. We discovered how natural it sounds in a Bach choral to fuse baroque strings with celesta. Bit by bit, it became clear to us that there are no borders between musical styles, if you are willing to cross them.’
Eric Vloeimans, trumpet:‘Baroque music, improvisation and curiosity, and a shared desire for good music are the vitamins for Carrousel. We fully cherished the old masters and added a world of improvisation and deeper layers. I love to give people joy and want them to leave the music hall happier than they were before they came in.’
