On his new album After Hours (2023), Nobel emphasizes the so-called 'American jazz standards' for the first time. His inspiration for this was the 40th anniversary of the Chet Baker Trio's album My Prince Will Come (1983). The line-up of trumpet, guitar and double bass corresponds to the line-up on Chet Baker's album. This combination of instruments invites the tranquil and melancholic sounds that connoisseurs of Baker will recognize. But Nobel, Langedijk and Pol also make plenty of room for swinging jazz.

April 16, 2021, trumpet player Teus Nobel will release Tanto Amor, a sequel to his 2019 album Saudade. Tanto Amor celebrates the repertoire of Brazilian singer / songwriter Ivan Lins, one of Brazil’s own musical and political heroes who turned 75 in 2020 and at the same time celebrated his 50th anniversary in the music industry. With the exception of “Song for Tim” (a co-composition with Roberto de Lujo) all songs on this recording are written by Ivan Lins himself. The arrangements for this project were made by musician, arranger and producer Roeland Jacobs.
