On december 9 and 10 we had the wonderful opportunity to play 4 different sets of Anthony Braxton’s Ghost Trance Music at Rataplan in Antwerp, as part of the Visitations residency-series by Sound In Motion. Below are some wonderful shots of the second evening (by Joachim Ceulemans).
In addition to this our recent release Ghost Trance Septet plays Anthony Braxton (eNR105) keeps receiving positive praise from international press! Raul da Gama wrote a long feature on his blog JazzdaGama, praising both my solo and septet releases of Braxton’s Ghost Trance Music:
“Both these recordings speak to the breakout of Kobe Van Cauwenberge – a musician with a fertile imagination capable penetrating virtually anything a composer might throw at him.”
Bruce Lee Gallanter praised the septet release in his latest newsletter for Downtown Music Gallery, New York:
“After listening to the first disc, I will admit that this is some of the best versions of Ghost Trance Music that I’ve heard. Absolutely superb on all levels.”
Lastly Mark Corroto gave it an honorary mention in his best of 2022 list for All About Jazz (“I've been continually spinning the Ghost Trance Septet Plays Anthony Braxton”)
