Liner notes

It takes a special kind of talent to do exactly what you want and have it accepted by a great number of people, especially when you are working in a field where public acceptance is hard to come by. When jazz
musicians have hits, sometimes it is because they popularize their style. Not so trumpeter, bassplayer, producer and composer Saskia Laroo. She’s not only a hardworking, sincere jazzmusician who is goodlooking, hip, popular and selling a lot of CDs from her selffounded record company Laroo Records, but she also stands for a very high musical level in the many different jazz directions she is going nowadays. Listen to the CD and agree with me! Hans Dulfer
