Eric Vloeimans, Will Holshouser: Two for the Road
by Vic Albani
Registrato dal vivo nel corso di un tour di concerti in Olanda nel 2021, Two for the Road è il secondo album del duo formato da Eric Vloeimans e Will Holshouser capace di mostrare forse più che nel primo lavoro, Eric & Will, la capacità di scrittura espressiva, improvvisazione virtuosa e la vasta territorialità di influenze dei due protagonisti. Suite jazz-folk introspettive per una figurazione strumentistica rara e difficile come quella fra tromba e fisarmonica, decisamente più in ...

The trumpet and the accordion may seem like an incompatible musical combination, and perhaps that may be so, except in the hands of Dutch trumpeter Eric Vloeimans and American accordionist Will Holshouser. Their dynamic and demonstrative interaction is on full display in this live concert recorded during a tour of the Netherlands in 2021 and is appropriately entitled Two For The Road.

Dutch trumpeter Eric Vloeimans isn't afraid to try different things. In fact, he seems to relish the opportunity to work in a variety of settings. Vloeimans tangled with pianist John Taylor, bassist Marc Johnson, and drummer Joey Baron on Bitches and Fairy Tales (Challenge Records, 1999); he went the electric route with a quartet known as Gatecrash; he recorded with The Netherlands Symphony Orchestra on Evensong (Challenge Classics, 2013); and he pared things down, conversing openly with pianist Florian Weber ...

by John Kelman
In a career spanning the intimate chamber jazz of Fugimundi to the electrified Gatecrash, Eric Vloeimans has emerged as a trumpeter with uncommon instincts, relentless lyricism and an astute ear for musical partnerships. It's been three years since his last recording as a leader--Heavens Above (Challenge, 2009)--but in the interim there's been an expansive five-CD career retrospective, V-Flow (Challenge, 2010), that shouldn't be mistaken as any suggestion that he's done all there is. If anything, V-Flow consolidates and contextualizes Vloeimans' ...

Eric VloeimansV-Flow Challenge Records2010 Still on the shy side of fifty, but looking considerably younger--in no small part due to a distinctive image with colorful clothing and funky shoes--it might appear premature to be releasing a five-disc box set that takes a retrospective look at the career of Dutch trumpeter Eric Vloeimans. But as the trumpeter begins to gain international stature through touring with his two main projects--the quirky chamber jazz of Fugimundi, ...

Il trombettista olandese Eric Vloeimans ha alle spalle molte collaborazioni e progetti che lo hanno visto protagonista con il suo suono dolente e carico di espressività accanto a musicisti come John Taylor, Furio di Castri, Joe La Barbera, Marc Johnson, Joey Baron, Palle Danielsson, Rita Marcotulli, Roberto Gatto, Nguyen Le e tanti altri. In questo album, registrato dal vivo nel celebre locale californiano Yoshi, lo troviamo alla testa del suo trio denominato 'Fugimundi' che presenta una combinazione strumentale piuttosto peculiare: ...
