What to say about somebody who is playin his Instrument for more than 30 years now?

HP-SALENTIN

Trumpeter Hans Peter Salentin started playin the Instrument when he was 11 years old. He was deeply influenced by his first teacher, Jon Eardly, a former member of the Gerry Mulligan Group. That's why HPS is always searching for nice and great melodies. As a Jazz Guy, he is a real time Composer. That helped him a lot to work as a Composer (Originals, Movie Scores, Music for String Quartet) as well as Producer (Lounge Music) HPS released more than 12 CDs on his own, Mainstream, Improvised – and Wave Music. (Amazon, I-tunes, CD Baby)

Whatever HP is playin: he sounds unique.

He is one of the best European Trumpeters.

— Bill Dobbins (Rochester New York)

The American Jazzmagazine: ,,Salentin furthermore uses every electronic possibility available today to make his trumpet create sounds previously unheard, without relinquishing the basic sounds. His playing and improvising are excellent, with some Miles references in it, also indebted to Nils Petter-Molvaer or Markus Stockhausen.

HPS developed into an important European Trumpeter

— German Jazz-Podium

Het JazzPodium in Duitsland (februari 2008):
"Salentin hat sich mittlerweile zu den bedeutensten Trompetern der europäischen Jazzszene entwickelt..."

The American Jazzmagazine (November 2007):
"Salentin furthermore uses every electronic possibility available today to make his trumpet create sounds previously unheard, without relinquishing the basic sounds. His playing and  improvising are excellent, with some Miles references in it, also indebted to Nils Petter-Molvaer or Markus Stockhausen."

Salentin at Adams Music Centre
"The instrument's gripping sound never seized to amaze me, ever after playing it for the first time at the Musikmesse in Frankfurt. When I picked it up and played it for the second time, a year later when visiting Adams, the same sensation took hold of me once again. I tried nearly all models of this serie and ultimately I chose the Raw Brass type, developed and built by Adams. It was then and there that I decided that I would never again part from this masterpiece of musical instrument engineering. All Adams Flügelhorns share the same superb qualities: a perfect harmony between projection, articulation, intonation and above all a great dark and just real Flügelhorn Sound! A great challenge for jazz players...
Just go, try it out and be impressed!"

Salentin bei Adams Muziekcentrale
"Vor einem Jahr, im Jahr 2007, begegnete ich Adams auf der Frankfurter Musikmesse und überprüfte ihr neues Flügelhorn. Dieser sehr spezielle Sound ging mir nicht aus dem Kopf, aber es hat ein weiteres Jahr gedauert (Februar 2008), bevor ich die Adams Muziekcentrale in den Niederlanden besuchte. Ich habe fast alle Modelle dieser Serie ausprobiert, und schließlich hab ich den Raw Brass Typ gewählt, entwickelt und gebaut von Adams. Alle Adams Flügelhörner haben die gleichen hervorragenden Qualitäten: Eine perfekte Harmonie zwischen Projektion, Artikulation und Intonation und vor allem ein großer, dunkler und echter Flügelhornsound! Eine große Herausforderung für Jazz-Spieler ... Gehen Sie einfach hin, probieren Sie sie aus und seien Sie beeindruckt!"
