Judith Steenbrink: “During the CD recordings we heard how the antique beauty of the cornetto blends wonderfully with Vloeimans’ sound. We discovered how natural it sounds to fuse baroque strings with celesta in a Bach chorale. Little by little it has become clear to us that walls between genres don’t matter if you dare to look over them.”
Carrousel
“… An astonishingly beautiful fusion of baroque and jazz” and “… the music of Carrousel is of astonishing beauty.” – Het Parool
Carrousel is a wonderful blend of two worlds. Where the first album Old, New & Blue was a meeting of two styles, in this album the boundary between baroque and modern no longer exists; the musical fusion is a fact. Together with Eric Vloeimans, Holland Baroque moves between cornetto and celesta, between Bach and Vloeimans, between baroque and now.
