News From The Trumpet World

Jens Lindemann and Foden’s Band Dreaming of the Masters was named Solo CD of the Year by British Bandsman.

Albums nominated include Fandango (Steven Mead and Tomoko Sawano), The Lure of the Red Jacket (Glyn Williams and Foden’s Band), and Shine (Les Neish and Wingates Band). The judges were unanimous in the decision. Panelist Tim Mutum explains that “a crossover project fusing the player’s North American style of playing and the great distinctive sound of the British brass band” gave “a real ‘wow’ factor to this for me.” Panelists discussed the variety of musical styles, Lindemann’s performance on flugelhorn, piccolo trumpet, and B-flat, as well as the performance of Foden’s Band under the direction of James Gourlay.
