Breuker, Willem Kollektief & Luca, Loes – “Hunger!” – [Bvhaast]

This 1999 recording marked the 25th anniversary of the Dutch jazz artist Willem Breuker’s Kollekttief. Great playing on an incredibly wide range of work that includes free jazz, a brass chorale, and a faithful rendition of “Yes, We Have No Bananas”. The style is sometimes reminiscent of Kurt Weill, also dips its toe into classical music of Rossini and Chopin. Wildly creative, almost always zany and lots of fun.
