Standards

"Try something new" is Simon Höfele's motto. Inquisitive, intrepid and full of passion for his instrument, on his new album "Standards" he turns to the trumpet in all it's many facets, sweeping his audience along with him with his audacious and clever programmes and thrilling playing. As a "Rising Star" of the European Concert Hall Organization and one of Konzerthaus Dortmund's "young wild things", Simon Höfele has centered his debut album on the Berlin Classics label around the key repertoire for trumpet and the quintessence of his time as a BBC Radio 3 New Generation Artist.
