Dave Douglas played a concert with his «New Quintet» in Oslo this evening. I’ve listened to a lot of his music during the years, but this was the first live experience for me.
What a player! Great ideas, and one of the nicest trumpet sounds I know. The Bach 25 large bore and Bach 3B is a nice combo … for him 😊 _________________ Van Laar OIRAM light I

Glad you enjoyed it. I’ve seen him live a few times over the last 10 years or so and it’s always been great. Who else was in the band?
I have a Model 25 similar to his and it certainly doesn’t work the same way for me! |

He was joined on stage by Marta Warelis on piano, a young Polish girl, who played insanely good! Joey Baron on drums, Nick Dunston on bass, and James Brandon Lewis on sax. They played pretty well together! 😊
BTW, I also had one of those «bad» 25’s 😂 _________________ Van Laar OIRAM light I

Exactly, only Baron missing 😅 I’m not usually into music this free, but this was really refreshing! Dave plays all over the horn with remarkable technique! _________________ Van Laar OIRAM light I

I saw Dave Douglas and his group at The Iridium in Manhattan about twenty years ago (trumpet, trombone, plus rhythm section.) Very skilled and creative musicians; just not my style of music. _________________ C. G. Conn 60B Super Connstellation

Probably the Bach L 25 Bell ( heavy weight bell ) that Douglas uses resembles more an typical English Cornet than a typical trumpet like a Bach ML 37. It feels " big " to play with that L bore. The sound i think also resembles more an english cornet.
He also uses a 3B mouthpiece, that has a slightly V shape cup, instead of the typical trumpet cup of a 3C.
Technically what he does with that equipment is impressive but musically is also impresive. |
