Jeroen Berwaerts

This past January on tour in Germany, for the first time in its 36-year history, the Brass had an unexpected last minute emergency requiring a trumpet substitute. As Jeroen tells the story, “I had called Joe about three hours before their concert to ask for a ticket. Joe said he had a better idea, that I wouldn’t need a ticket if I were to simply bring my trumpet and play along.” And play along he did! German critics were unanimous throughout the tour that the group sounded exciting, fresh and very gifted with Jeroen’s musical contribution.
