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.

Samba & Co - This is very much the music of Rio de Janeiro in Brazil.

Take a look at footage of a Brazilian Carnival, Samba music is very much at the heart of this.

“An absorbing selection of refined choices and inspirational highlights. Marvellous."

“Stunning playing all round and a perfect 'snapshot' of the incredibly high standards of performance in brass playing in London today."

Peter Bassano
Head of Brass Royal College of Music (retired)

“This is joyous stuff; an intelligent, coherent crossover disc, performed with phenomenal punch. Brilliantly recorded too – what’s the point of assembling a collective of virtuoso brass players if they can’t make your ears bleed ?”

"WOW !!!!! all of you should be locked up !!!! What great stuff - the compositions/arrangements, the playing (OUTRAGEOUS !!! ), everything is simply fantastic. (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! (an inch or two is ok but a few yards is really unfair !!!!!!!!!! )"

Jiggs Whigham
International Jazz Trombone Soloist, Musical Director, BBC Big Band, President International Trombone Association and Professor Hanns Eisler College of Music, Berlin

“Under the Spell of Spain is an extraordinary CD, in company with the finest large brass ensemble recordings ever made. This is a must buy CD!”
