The Palace of Nostalgia

sat 25 jul 2020 20:00 hrs
Composers: Billie Holiday | Fay Lovsky
Again, plenty of sunshine in our Palace on Saturday evening at eight.
Starting with the cool June Christy, with what once was a cheerful tango and grew into a slow jazz standard (’Softly as in a morning sunrise’), and with the Boswell Sisters (‘Put that sun back in the sky’).
You will also hear the first woman singer who could make an album for Blue Note, but who nevertheless stayed an obscure name: Dodo Greene (‘You are my sunshine’). Further: Henry Hall & the BBC Dance Orchestra (’The sun has got his hat on’), Billie Holiday with on trumpet Buck Clayton, tenor saxophone player Lester Young and pianist Teddy Wilson (’Sun Showers’), and guitarist Eddy Christiani (‘Zonnig Madeira’).
From the times of the crooners, the vocalist with the whispering voice: Jack Smith (’Sunshine’). Further the comedian Stan Freberg who makes mincemeat of a ‘sunny’ success of Les Paul & Mary Ford; Fay Lovsky; The Beau Hunks with Laurel & Hardy music (’Sunflower Waltz’); Bernie Cummins (‘Livin’ in the sunlight, lovin’ in the moonlight’)
When the band leader of the Kentucky Serenaders had left angrily, Johnny Hamp, who could only sing a little, became leader. The Serenaders became a fantastic orchestra under his leadership (‘Keep your sunny side up’). Also you will hear Rita Reys, in one of her rare recordings in Dutch, singing about the sun in Scheveningen. Furthermore, we will play Ella Fitzgerald (‘In the evening when the sun goes down’).
