CD: Rollin'

Erik Truffaz, a Swiss-born French jazz trumpeter, has long acknowledged his greatest role model, Miles Davis. But the sound aesthetic of a Nils Petter Molvær also resonates in his music. With his latest album, he now takes his listeners into the darkened cinema hall and introduces them to unforgettable film classics with his music.
Of course, Miles Davis' legendary theme from "Elevator to the Scaffold" is not missing, also to be heard are compositions by Ennio Morricone, Nino Rota, etc. Jazz and cinema have always cross-fertilized each other and left lasting impressions, Erik Truffaz now continues this tradition in a modern way.
