7.	The massive sound of Bach’s Passacaglia for Organ in Cm (BWV 582) served as my inspiration for the first part of Trinity. It is loud and edgy and has a dense texture that is even stressed by my solo on the tenor sax. All of a sudden the tune takes a more happy and final direction in a holy and joyful 9/8 mood. Various soloists play their solo fills over the melody, that slowly fades away. Dick de Graaf


Trinity from Bach DNA - Clazz Ensemble

March composed by Frank Carlberg

available on the Red Piano Records cd - 
Federico on Broadway/Clazz Ensemble & Frank Carlberg

A valid addition to the Dutch Jazz landscape. Downbeat (USA)

As modern big band jazz, it’s artfully arranged and played with a smart balance of classical precision and unhinged ferocity New York Music Daily '12

* The Netherlands' reputation for supporting a flourishing and venturesome jazz scene is supported by the bracing new album by Amsterdam's Clazz Ensemble of

music by Finnish-American pianist-composer Frank Carlberg. Some of the structures will remind careful listeners of Philip Glass and other late 20th century postmodernists.

Milwaukee Express USA februari '12

* Het Clazz Ensemble geniet inmiddels wereldwijde faam. Jazzflits '12 (NL)

* This sounds like music for experimental, big budget films. Not church basement music but certainly not mainstream either. Midwest Record USA februari '12

* A Fellini-meetscarnival atmosphere, with flickering woodwinds, flaring brass and crazy themes. Oregon Jazz Society '12
