Mallemolen

Carrousel

LopLop LLr-036, 2012

Clarinettist and composer Steven Kamperman presents a quartet under the name of Carrousel. The CD Mallemolen is an album devoted to the magic world of the funfair. Merry-Go-Rounds, musical quacks, the lady with the beard, a giant Ferris Wheel all pass the revue. Exuberant improvisations and intimate sketches alternate.

World class piano player Jeroen van Vliet (member of Eric Vloeimans’ Gatecrash), versatile bassist Meinrad Kneer (member of Trio Baars-Kneer-Elgart) and the young Austrian drum talent Andreas Pichler (member of Wolfgang Muthspiel Trio) complete the line-up. Steven Kamperman’s Carrousel presents an imaginative collection of sounds in a classic jazz quartet line-up.

Steven Kamperman – alto clarinet, Bb clarinet, soprano sax • Jeroen van Vliet – piano • Meinrad Kneer – double bass • Andreas Pichler – drums

City Maps review Trouw

City Maps "Clarinet player and composer Steven Kamperman is an adventurer who never loses track. His music often departs from a clear starting point, but that surely doesn't mean that the road and the final destination are already familiar territory. City Maps perfectly fits that approach, and once again, it is 'spot on'. De busy city, the multicultural city, the enigmatic city: Kamperman brings everything to life with his (almost) drumless quartet. And what a good idea, leaving out the drums; it adds breathing space to the music!" - Trouw, Mischa Andriessen
