Frank Vaganee trio • Top Jazz Trio
Frank Vaganée (as) ; Sam Gerstmans (b) ; Teun Verbruggen (dr)
Frank Vaganée is a major figure on the Belgian jazz scene. A virtuoso alto saxophonist, his soloist qualities are sometimes overlooked due to his long-standing association with the Brussels Jazz Orchestra, where he has served as artistic director for over thirty years. Tonight, he is joined by the ever-solid Sam Gertsmans and colorist drummer Teun Verbruggen, embracing the rich tradition — and freedom — of the piano-less trio format.
