DAVID HERMLIN, LORENZO BALDASSO and SASCHA KOMMER – three excellent young swing musicians from Berlin, Milan and Pforzheim … A singer and drummer, a clarinetist and a pianist. All three love American swing from the thirties, all three are virtuosos on their instrument. With their new show “We Got Rhythm”, the DAVID HERMLIN TRIO recalls the great combo arrangements of the swing era, especially of course the revolutionary Benny Goodman Trio with pianist Teddy Wilson and drummer Gene Krupa.
The musicians around DAVID HERMLIN renounce any attempt to copy their role models, but develop a very own, lively style. There is music, singing and even dancing, featuring a special guest appearance by David Hermlin’s 16 year old sister RACHEL HERMLIN, who – like her brother – is a star of the “Swing Dance Orchestra” led by her father ANDREJ HERMLIN.
“We Got Rhythm” – that’s wonderful, fun, an lively performed swing from the America of the 30s, immortal music from Goodman to Gershwin. Keep Swingin!
