Highlights from music history in the Palace. We will focus on the death of bass player Eugene Wright, the last member of the Dave Brubeck Quartet, and the long-lasting turmoil in the quartet with the bass player and alto player on one side and the percussionist on the other. They believed him to be “too noisy”.
Furthermore, Rita Reys waiting for rain, organist Jimmy Smith, “Rhinestone Cowboy” Glen Campbell and from time immemorial: The Merry Sparklers.
Additionally, Rockin’ Ray Smith. This farmer’s son from Kentucky ended up in the rock ‘n’ roll-scene because a superior at the Air Force ordered him to sing songs.
Lastly, Zarah Leander, The Boswell Sisters and the Bram Wijnands/Wim Wollner Quartet with saxophone player Richard Ross. We will also focus on the recent passing of Gerry Marsden.
