West Coast Big Band: Tribute to Peter Herbolzheimer

1/5

Peter Herbolzheimer's famous big band made a splash in the 70s, 80s and 90s. His idiosyncratic work as a composer and arranger has its own signature and, above all, a lot of energy. In the Bimhuis an ode to a big band giant, with international top soloists from his orchestra.

Peter Herbolzheimer

The West Coast Big Band pays tribute to Peter Herbolzheimer and brings along three soloists from the original band for an evening full of genuine big band jazz. Peter Herbolzheimer was a German-Romanian trombonist who was best known as a bandleader, composer and arranger. He died in 2010. Dutch jazz musicians also played in his orchestras, including big names such as Ferdinand Povel, Peter Tiehuis and Ack van Rooyen. For this special ode, three soloists from the original big band make an appearance: Bart van Lier on trombone, John Ruocco on tenor sax and clarinet and Andy Haderer on trumpet.
