Climax Jazz Band in Japan
I have been a member of the Climax Jazz Band almost from it's beginning in 1971. We lived and operated out of Toronto, Canada.
In 1996 we were invited to come to Japan to perform a number of concerts. We had large audiences, 5000-8000 per concert. We also featured a musician who would play the large carillon located in a tower about 50m. tall. De carillon player came from the Netherlands. Dr. Maassen was actually the director of the Dutch carillon school, He loved jazz and could improvise as well. Next to me (Bob Erwig) on cornet we had Pieter Meijers on soprano sax, Len Gosling on trombone, Jack Vincken on banjo, Randy Morris piano, Chris Daniels bass and Jamie Aug drums.
