He is one of Sweden's most personal trumpet players, a musician whose manner of expression is as timeless as it is modern.On his new CD InchAspirationInch we can also hear Peter Asplund in his rather lesser known role as jazz vocalist.” I want to show my full spectrum of colors, for the first time letting the jazz trumpeter and the jazz singer-artist-entertainer live side by side,Inch says Peter Asplund.AspirationInch took shape during a couple of intensive days in the studio. Outside, autumn storms were raging; inside, open musical conversations over a dozen durable standards was the agenda.

I have always loved Songs.They follow me wherever I go and give me the soundtrack to life. On this album I pay tribute to the songwriters that gave us all this wonderful music by playing a selection of songs that have that Inchlarger than lifeInch quality.My band ASPIRATION, with my brothers in arms, bassistHans Andersson and drummer Johan Löfcrantz Ramsay are once again joined by the great Lars Jansson on piano.To add further grand dimensions to the music we teamed up with the fabulous Göteborg Wind Orchestra and, of course, the one and only Mats Hålling as arranger and conductor.- Peter Asplund
