Jazzhus Montmartre closes because of Covid-19

[Balladeer]

Just got informed that one of the most legendary European homes of jazz has shut down because of Covid-19.

Jazzhus Montmartre in Copenhagen was a cosy  jazz venue hosting legendary concerts by Dexter Gordon, Stan Getz and Chet Baker among others.

Jazzhus goes back to 1959, now it is history - I´m dismayed!

That's a shame! I have a couple of Dexter albums recorded there. Had the good fortune to see 2 shows in 1978: Pat Metheny and then Carla Bley Band 3 nights later. Don't remember much about it or the shows, but fairly intimate if I remember correctly.
