Dietrich Koch Big Band – Berlin Cookbook (CD)
Released in 2007 on MONS records. Jiggs Whigham (Leader of the BBC Big Band in London and fromer leader of RIAS Big Band Berlin):
‘the music on this new recording ‘BERLIN COOKBOOK’ by the dietrich koch big band is wonderful! i’m deeply impressed with not only dietrich’s superb writing (both his compositions and the arrangements) but by the band. the ensemble sound is very good – intensity, shaping of phrases, dynamics, etc.), and the soloists are outstanding! this collection of diverse material – some pieces incorporating voice, some latin/fusion, and some ‘down home’ groove – is a welcome addition to the big band scene and very enjoyable listening, indeed!’
