新着情報 REPORT/海外からのお客様/ハモンド/鈴木楽器 Jon Hammond and Koei Tanaka Concert for President Manji Suzuki and Company Hamamatsu Japan

http://www.suzuki-music.co.jp/hammond/new/101207/index.htm


■ 11月1日(月) 晴れ
この日は何故なのかトリプルブッキング。プライベートで日本に立ち寄られたジョン・ハモンドさん、日本ツアーを終えて帰国前の敦賀明子さん。そして、これもまた関西からの帰路に立ち寄られた田中光栄さん。何の脈絡もなく集まった3人にアフターファイブコンサートをお願いしてしまったのはスズキ楽器貿易の北米担当者だった。




ジョン・ハモンドさんはショービジネスの表舞台に出てくることは少ないが、フランクフルトメッセでは25年、ナムショーでもレギュラーのように演奏されているエンドーサーである。今回も鈴木会長に唯会いたいという一念で来日された律儀なお人柄です。




派手さこそないがベーシックな彼のオルガンプレイは聴く人に安心感を与えてくれます。セラピストの術中に入っていくかのように、仕事を終えた従業員たちの心を癒してくれました。

Annual Musikmesse Warm Up Party in Jazzkeller Frankfurt hosted by Jon Hammond Band will be

celebrating 25 consecutive years performing in the International Musikmesse which is the biggest

event in the music lights and sound Industry.



Jon Hammond is very proud to announce the line up

and happy to return again to the world famous stage of Jazzkeller Frankfurt, the oldest jazz

club in all of Germany. Joe Berger guitar and Jon Hammond organ are both from USA, known

affectionately to their music friends as Ham-Berger (we're on a roll! Jon and Joe often say)

long-time associates and a fixture at many trade shows, as seen on the long-running NYC based

TV show "The Jon Hammond Show" now in 27th year.

Tony Lakatos the great Hungarian tenor sax star from Budapest, from the famous Lakatos Family of

Hungarian Gypsy music tradition going back generations. Tony is a lifetime member of the HR

Hessischer Rundfunk Radio Big Band and currently playing with Herbie Hancock. Tony is an artist

endorsee for P. Mauriat saxophones. Jon Hammond is extremely happy Tony will be rejoining the

band in Jazzkeller, along with another long-time musical associate, Giovanni Gulino drums from

Sicily Italy. Giovanni has been the house drummer for many years in Jazzkeller Frankfurt and

Jazz Kneipe, he also comes from a family of musicians, his brother Sandro is an outstanding

bass player. 20 years ago Jon was introduced to Tony and Giovanni by Regina Snilovic the owner

of the Jazz Kneipe, which is now closed, but formerly presented live music 7 nights a week.

Tony, Giovanni and Jon were often the house band, by Jon played 207 gigs there with the boys,

often joined by other well known musicians in the after hours, including:

Attila Cornelius Zoller (June 13, 1927 – January 25, 1998) Jazz guitarist from Visegrád, Hungary

R.I.P., Stephen Ferrone drummer of Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers, AWB and Eric Clapton. The

music went on there often until 5AM in the morning, it was a meeting point for musicians

and new arrivals to the Frankfurt scene as well as old-timers.

Jazzkeller Frankfurt is a very special location and atmosphere with a very important history, a

favorite of musicians and jazz fans going back to Louis Armstrong, Art Blakey and The Jazz

Messengers, Chet Baker and many others.

Jon Hammond calls Jazzkeller his "Good Luck Room" and Frankfurt his "Good Luck City". This is

the place where Jon had his very first Frankfurt gigs, the 3rd of a series was a packed full

house after Jon Hammond appeared on the local TV program "Hessen Report" on RTL Plus Television.

Beatrix Rief moderator host of Hessen Report recommended Jon Hammond's show at the Jazzkeller

and ever since a tradition has been established, Jon Hammond comes back to play there very year

and will until the very end.
