Even my father-in-law has made the trip in the past, being a big fan of the original North Sea Jazz Festival in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. And we often host music journalist Wolfgang Koenig from Berlin, Germany, on the couch in our lounge. Continue reading ‘There’s sexy Jazz in the air!’
An ‘old’ performing buddy of mine, Gaetan Schmit, sent me a mail recently telling me more about a show he has on at the moment, and then I saw a piece in the weekend-papers yesterday reminding me!
