What if you could play along with the recordings, minus your instrument?

Now you can. Select a tune from The Joy of an Empty Trash Can, download the sheet music at Sheet Music Plus (or the download link after each track), and use the hamburger menu to select your instrument, or the fast-forward button to navigate between tracks.

Jump in and start playing, there’s room to improvise too. Parts are also available for Trumpet & Clarinet in B flat, Alto & Tenor saxophone.

Within a few weeks, the first two tracks will also be available on all streaming services, complete with the real trombone and saxophone parts, played by Willem and me. For the remaining seven tunes, the themes are for now played by samples, the real solos will follow later, have a little patience there.
