"April (Parisian) Showers That Bring May Flowers"
Our Special Guests Are Bassist Tom McKenzie And Harpist Tiphenn Fauchois (on the N'goni, a West African Harpe)
(Standards. Jazz. Pop.)
"When April showers may come your way.
They bring the flowers that bloom in May"
(Lyrics from Judy Garland's interpretation of the song "April Showers", first performed by Al Jolson in 1921.)
Says Tom about this instrument:
"La Contrebasse. La Grand-mère. String bass. Bass fiddle. Double bass. Bull bass. Bass viol.
She is called by many names and her function in any musical ensemble is to, "basically", lay down the groove: provide the bottom (base) of the harmony and rhythm.
But, her melodic range is broad, and she can sing you to tears as well as make you feel that thump in your rump.
Tom McKenzie is originally from New York and has had an international career for 30 plus years playing in a wide variety of venues: churches, theatres, concerts, festivals, recording studios. He has also been a street musician. He has worked in the US, Europe Africa and the Caribbean.
It's €25.00 (EXACT CHANGE) for a fun dinner.
Address: At a fun venue in the center of Paris. Address details with the reservation.
A fun dinner, a great topic, meeting and networking with, fun, new international people.
