Midlife
Revival Jazzband
Arnold Wildschut
- Clarinet
Arnold Wildschut enlightened by the Revival style of a.o. Chris Barber
and Acker Bilk, played in the Utrecht student-orchestra Uncle Zeus
Feetwarmers during his college years.
After a long interlude of which the last seven years playing the hobo in
classical ensembles, he returned in 1987 to his old love:
Traditional Jazz, playing the clarinet in a.o. the Big Butter and Egg
Men, the Blues Serenaders, and the Swingdixieseven.
However, only after 1998, when he joined the Midlife Revival Jazzband,
he started playing the New Orleans style on his clarinet.
His inspiration and fascination can be traced back to recordings of
George Lewis and his followers, combined with the specific sound of the
clarinet.
