We saw The Sun Ra Arkestra (under the direction of Knoel Scott) in concert at De Singer in Rijkevorsel a couple of days ago.
We were told that Marshall Allen wasn't present on the tour as he would have had to pay extra insurance to get on the plane. Because of his age. (He's 99 years old). Incredible.
But what a show.
Chris Hemingway on saxophone. A name to remember.
The band is doing another couple of shows on the continent, but you'll have to hurry:
- Sat Oct 28th. Zurich, Switzerland, Zentralwascherei
- Sun Oct 29th. Luzern, Switzerland, Salquin Concert Hall, University of Luzern
- Tue Oct 31st. Milano, Italy, Triennale Milano
at De Singer
a recent YouTube video, with Chris Hemingway taking the first solo !!
