Jazz, blues and nostalgia.
With the sensational and rebel pianist Evalyn Tyner, who was known for never playing a piece more than once, for becoming Washington politicians’ and diplomats’ favourite in the 1940s, for hardly making any records and for disappearing into nothingness after her marriage. And also Billie Holiday, two mega influential vocalists of the 20th century, Connee Boswell and Bing Crosby, beautiful back to school nostalgia by Don Quishocking, ‘Little Miss Dynamite’ Brenda Lee in a sad lovesong, blues icon Lonnie Johnson and his ‘Crowing Rooster Blues’, guitar works by The Shadows and Chet Atkins and last but not least the ever enchanting and cool Chris Connor.
