PREMIERE: GIANTS OF JAZZ

SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 18 AT 21:00

On Sunday, February 18 at 21:00, Stingray DJAZZ premieres a legendary concert recorded at Newport Jazz Festival Rotterdam in 1972. The Newport Jazz Festival, first established in the North American town of Newport, Rhode Island in the summer of 1954, has now grown to become one of the largest multi-day celebrations of jazz worldwide. Numerous famous live albums from top-rate jazz stars were recorded there, and it has spawned several worldwide tours – including editions of the Newport Jazz Festival in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. In October 1972, the Newport Jazz Festival Rotterdam welcomed the Giants of Jazz, an all-star band more that worthy of the name: it features drummer Art Blakey, trumpeter Dizzy Gillespie, bassist Al McKibbon, pianist Thelonious Monk, saxophonist Sonny Stitt, and trombonist Kai Winding. Don’t miss the premiere of this historic concert on Sunday, February 18 at 21:00 – on Stingray DJAZZ!
