New Trumpet Music 5 – FONT New York City
Post categories In Events, New Trumpet Music
In 2003 Dave Douglas and Roy Campbell Jr. initiated the Festival Of New Trumpet Music (FONT) committed to the support of new music by a diverse community of trumpet and brass players, and the presentation of their work to the public. For the 13th edition of this festival I was in New York City myself and had the pleasure to discover exciting music and (re-)connect with a lot of trumpet players and other musicians. What a great opportunity!
Before and around this festival I had the chance to meet many friends and make plans for upcoming projects: Sylvie Courvoisier's Large Ensemble and a new one with my own music. I also tried to enjoy and explore this beautiful and interesting city. I hope to be back soon!
