A Tribute To The Kenny Clarke - Francy Boland Big Band
For years, the ensemble around American drummer Kenny Clarke and Belgian pianist and arranger Francy Boland was considered an independent and distinctive voice of jazz in Europe and beyond. More than 240 arrangements of handwritten original scores by the band have been in the possession of the BuJazzO since 2018. In 2019, a first musical focus was dedicated to this treasure. In 2023, a further selection from this invaluable fund will be heard.Replica Rolex Milgauss watches
