Joshua Redman

It is hard to describe the Jazz-music of Joshua Redman with words. You should visit youtube. Listening to his music (including all the band members)I get really excited. The band winds you up and he has definitly his own musical-identity.

I was present at the concert of "The Trondheim Jazz Orchestra" in March 2013 at Krefeld Germany, where Joshua Redman was guest tenorsaxophonist. The "Orchestra" did a great performance thanks to themselves and of course thanks to Joshua. He acted as a unpretentious teamplayer.

I was also very happy with the modesty of the German audience. October 2013 I was for the 1st time present at a concert of Joshua Redman & Band at the Bimhuis Amsterdam. The venue "Bimhuis" is great. The distance from the band to the audience is very little, so you enjoy the live performance in a great way. The soundmixman had a hearing problem, as the treble was very dominant. It's also a pity that the Dutch audience always talks at a very high volume.
