Nice live video's from a concert in Boxmeer. Filmed and edited by Juul Thielen, sound engineer: Guido Nieuwdorp, mix: Bert Lochs

Van Laar

Bert Lochs plays a Van Laar B8 trumpet and a van Laar B2 flugel. A customized Curry 10.5C trumpet mouthpiece and a self designed piece on his flugelhorn. Both pieces share a sixties (Ratzenberger) Jettone rim.

Reviews

'Trumpet player Bert Lochs has a pleasant tone, creamy and fat...With his considerable technique he is able to tell his story extensively...An intriguing CD
