Liner notes (English)

I don ‘t know of any other musician that takes action with so much power and decisiveness to spread their musical ideas as Saskia Laroo does. Whenever I look at her website I am amazed at how she manages to do so many performances at venues all over the world. Yet again, I'm not amazed because I've known Miss Laroo for years as a hardworking, fantastic musician who not only as a trumpet player towers aloft but also as a bandleader and colleague stands alone. She's always willing to give young musicians a chance and have smashing jam sessions with other musicians no matter what the setting.
Respect Saskia!

Liner notes (Dutch):

Ik ken geen andere muzikant die zich met zoveel power en daadkracht inzet voor de verbreiding van
haar muzikale opvattingen als trompettiste Saskia Laroo.
Iedere keer als ik haar website bekijk verbaas ik me hoe zij er in slaagt zo'n groot aantal optredens te doen op plekken gesitueerd over onze hele aardbol. Alhoewel, verbazen doe ik me eigenlijk niet want Miss Laroo ken ik al jaren als een hardwerkende fantastische muzikante die niet alleen als trompettiste op eenzame hoogte staat maar ook als bandleider en kollega muzikant een unieke plaats in neemt. Altijd bereid jonge musici een kans te geven of met andere muzikanten te zorgen voor spetterende jamsessions in welke omgeving dan ook.
Respect Saskia!!

Hans Dulfer
