Stavanger is the fourth biggest city in Norway. It is situated on the southwest coast. My aim is to try to capture something from every day, from the area nearby too, and when I am not at home I will still try to put up a photo from my archive. Welcome back for another look.

MAIJAZZ started yesterday. It is an annual festival that has a very good reputation with many artists from all over the world. Tonight I had the pleasure to attend a concert by Richard Galliano/ Gonzalo Rubalcaba Duo.
Wonderful music, full of atmosphere. This was a concert sponsored by French company's and even the French ambassador had taken a trip to Stavanger to be here for the concert.
Check out the music and the artists on internet.

I have to admit that MAIJAZZ has introduced me to many names and music that I would perhaps not heard without MAIJAZZ in town.
You are lucky, this is really a treat!
ReplyDeleteGalliano playing in Bucharest last March. He's quite good. Sounds like a great event.
ReplyDeleteWow! Sounds like you are a lucky guy. :)
ReplyDeleteI really like this picture. You got the lighting just right. And the musicians look like they're having a good time too.
Not my type of music, but if you are a Jazz fan this must be the place to be!
ReplyDeleteNice shot. I like very much pictures of concert when you can feel the atmosphere.
ReplyDeleteThank you for coming on :http://chateau-gontier-daily-photo.blogspot.com/
Super shot with nice reflections on the piano. By coincidence I was listening to some Norwegian accordeon music today, as I had a Statoil student from Bergen who played a few pieces - on her iPod!
ReplyDeleteA wonderful photo of some great jazz musicians! Kjempe flott!
