HOME new album Ilja Reijngoud
A new, hip, modern, energetic and groovy jazz-rock album of my new band. 8 tracks played by an all-star line-up, Rob van Bavel (keys), Tom Beek (ten sax), Udo Pannekeet (bass) and Marcel Serierse (drums).
Some great soloists add their artistic contribution to this unique album. First off all Tineke Postma, who plays a beautiful solo on Easy Conversations. Furthermore Angelo Verploegen, gets wild on a NO-type groove, Ed Verhoeff guitar on a traditional partido alto, Oscar Cordero plays beautiful flugelhorn and Berend van Gurp nails the shit out of it on his bassbone.

New Technique book out now
I'm happy to present my first technique book for trombone and (lower) brass instruments. It's based on my 18 years of experience as teacher at several conservatories, and as clinician. It's full of alternative and challenging exercises - not the regular stuff you are used to play as warming-up or technique check-up. I hope you will like it.
