Description

Grooves & Co is a progressive collection of 12 pieces that aims to introduce brass (plus drum kit and percussion players) to the fun and benefit of ensemble playing.

Each piece is groove-based and takes its stylistic inspiration from numerous World Music styles.  

With this in mind at Superbrass HQ, we have opted for a 3 part flexi approach, allowing for a balancing of the ensemble – from 3 players to 30+ players.

Jazzy 7 Co - Character is added by the use of swing, a special rhythmic way of dealing with quavers.

Take a listen to the bands of such leaders as Benny Goodman and Glen Miller.

“This intriguing "water-borne" voyage runs the gamut from more classically-tinged interpretations to straight-ahead and improvised jazz. Along that journey we are treated to a highly inspired and masterfully presented performance.”

“This is a wonderfully charismatic disc with playing of the highest quality. I cannot recommend it highly enough.”

(actually - i couldn't have expected anything less ! ) Many, many thanks to you and all for your superb contributions. yet again, you've managed to raise the bar!
