Terms and conditions
Legal information

New York saxophonist Robin Verheyen and his Pirouet debut, Starbound, brilliantly accompanied by Bill Carrothers, Nicolas Thys, and Dré Pallemaerts: masterful clarity and atmospheric depth. The young saxophonist's Pirouet debut is a CD for listeners who want to be challenged and who treasure the art of nuance. The many subtle shadings are more and more fascinating with each successive listening. Starbound is the atmospheric musical adventure of a multi-faceted musician - a musician who will be much-talked-about in the future, a future in which for Robin Verheyen the sky is the limit!

PRESS QUOTES
"It is Verheyen's ability to find every creative possibility within a limited framework that puts Starbound over the top, and adds Verheyen to the list of reasons why jazz in the 21st century will be just fine." (J. Hunter, All About Jazz)

"Starbound, Verheyen's Pirouet Records debut, proves to be a distinctively off-center and fully engaging set of sounds with satisfying depth." (Dan McClenaghan, All About Jazz)

"Twenty-six-year-old Belgian saxophonist Robin Verheyen displays a masterful command of his horns on his auspicious debut as a leader." (Jazz Times)

"A well-balanced set that unfolds with an openness to spontaneity and joy, Starbound is an impressive introduction to a unique voice. Verheyen brings a fresh, ensemble-driven approach to contemporary jazz." (John Vincent Barron, Jazzreview.com)
