'Der soulige und warme Sound des flügelhorn-und Trompetenspielers Lochs sticht aus einem überdurchschnittlichen Quartet hervor'
 

'These young and talented musicians have won my respect in their beautiful treatment of the three elements melody, harmony and rhythm'

'There are not many interesting trumpet players in jazz anyway, but Lochs, who provides an alternative to mainstream jazz on the Dutch scene, has now reached a point in his playing that one can easily establish that Lochs' sound can hardly be bettered.'

Lochs is a gifted and versatile trumpet player: always investigative, seldom predictable; introspective and intimate.

Lochs' tribute to a trumpets most important component is certainly something! Sparks fly in this powerful progressive jazz played with joy and verve.

'Geprägt wird das Quartet durch die einfühlsamen trompetensoli von Bert Lochs, der besonders bei seinen ruhigen, selbstkomponierten Stücken heraussticht'

The combination is a blessed one. A fine rhythm section and the leaders share a consentaneous view on their music in which melancholy and optimism fight a battle for priority. 

‘It is a pleasure listening to music which is born of today with firm roots in jazz, played by three musically and technically well-equipped musicians. Excellent, lyrical compositions.’

Bert Lochs's tone still gets more refind and subtle. In his "where is the snow he reminds of Erik Vloeimans's playing, also soft and sweet.

Tracks that stand out in a combination of melancholy, beautiful lines and
modesty. BAQ is a promising debut album that makes you look out
for a next one.

  The velvety tones of Bert Lochs seem to refer to the Italian trumpet player Enrico Rava.
