Description

“Sunny was written for the jazz group Loose Tubes in 1985 and performed frequently. The rubato trumpet solo was originally intended for clarinet but as a trumpeter in the band I fancied having fun with it myself. There is also a reference to a moment in West Side Story which was on my turntable at the time.” J.E.

John Eacott is a jazz trumpeter, composer and academic. After Loose Tubes he composed many scores for TV, Film and Theatre including 'Gormenghast' and the2012 RSC 'Taming of the Shrew' while lecturing in music and sound art. Since 2008 he has focussed on 'Floodtide' making live sonification performances of tidal water.

“The CD is just fabulous. The ensemble playing is fantastic; the tightness of the ensemble is amazing; the balance and dynamics are just brilliant.”

Philip Biggs
The Brass Herald

“Many recordings over the last few decades have demonstrated the superb quality of British brass playing; 'Under the Spell of Spain' will rightfully take its place among them.”

“Brilliant technique and superb artistry from all concerned.”

Denis Wick

“The arrangements all sound fresh, and the playing is beyond reproach.”

Dr. Gavin Dixon
Classical CD Reviews

“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.”
