PETE CHRISTLIEB - FERDINAND POVEL

TRIO REIN DE GRAAFF

|

Pete Christlieb, born in Los Angeles, February 1945, has a career of 45 years up to now and played with a lot of famous names, like Chet Baker and Woody Herman in the 1960s. During the concert we learned that he is a skilled ballad player, special in the tune Body and Soul, a tenor's man dillemma Rein De Graaff labeled this Coleman Hawkins classic. He showed us that he is a solid player in the more fast pieces.

Ferdinand Povel is a regular guest in Porgy en Bess jazz club and performed with Rein De Graaff in previous concerts, like a tour labeled as Jubilee Jazz Party with Bennie Bailey, Ronnie Cuber and Herb Geller. He belongs to the best saxophone players in Holland and abroad. I remember him in a previous concert with the John Marshal-Ferdinand Povel European Quintet early this year in Porgy en Bess. Ferdinand Povel surprised with a great ballad I Fall In Love Too Easily.
