With great sadness we have to report that jazz trombonist and band leader Bart Lust suddenly passed away on New Year’s Eve after a short sick bed. He was 50 years old. We will broadcast a repeat of the broadcast with Bart on 14 September 2015.
Bart Lust (Zaandam, 16 October 1967) studied at the Hilversums Conservatorium Jazz trombone with trombonist Bart van Lier. Subsequently he took private lessons for half a year in New York with Slide Hampton, Jimmy Knepper and Conrad Herwig a.o.
