Jazz, blues and nostalgia, by Sjaak Roodenburg.
Pills for energy. With Jasperina de Jong, Peggy Lee and jazz legend Frank Trumbauer, who was one of the most important C Melody saxophone players back then. He was so succesful that he could afford to travel from gig to gig by his own plane.
We will also play Pia Beck, who threw al caution to the winds in her comeback ‘Flip Flop Fly’, Wim Sonneveld, trumpet player Blue Mitchell, two exceptional Dutch vocalists, Ann Burton and Letty de Jong, ‘Mister Silvertone’ (the nickname for shiny bandleader Freddy Martin), Charles Aznavour in duet with himself, Wannes van de Velde, ‘sigh girl’ April Stevens, the British duo Morecambe & Wise; witty for decades already, Nelson Riddle, Lena Horne, Nat King Cole, Carol Haney- in sum: the kind of music which will make you sway for sure.
