Those of you who are faithful viewers of This is Belgium have met two of my three sons, Warren Dekko, the author of Appointment in Milano (http://whatisbelgium.blogspot.com/2011/11/meet-author-warren-dekko.html), and Graham the globetrotter (http://whatisbelgium.blogspot.com/2011/12/belgian-cowboys-in-colombia.html).
My youngest son Jason saw the Fabrizio Graceffa Quartet in the Ixelles jazz club "The Sounds", took this picture with his phone and sent it to me with the request to post it on this blog. Thanks, Jason!
Fabrizio is a fantastic jazz guitarist and composer whose enthusiasm infected and inspired Jason, who has himself become a great guitar player and songwriter.
What follows is an excerpt from the club's website: "You are not in Chicago or New Orleans, you are in Ixelles. But if you are under the impression of being somewhere else, that’s understandable : the atmosphere, the fragrance, the warmth and the music have the color of true, authentic jazz.And there is not only the music, but also the style, the cocktails (Sergio !), the delicious Italian dishes (Rosy !!) and the quality of an authentic Brussels venue.The « Sounds », run since 1986 by Sergio Duvalloni and Rosy Merlini, has had the best Belgian and international jazzmen on stage, and the numerous memorable concerts make it a ‘must’ for all jazz fans and lovers of good music in general."

ReplyDeleteJe heb de vraag gesteld om mij toe te voegen aan de facebook groep van Belgian bloggers, bedankt voor de vraag maar liever niet.
ReplyDeleteCiao Anni, sono di ritorno, come vedi. Ti ringrazio per le tue continue visite e ti avviso che ho fatto almeno 200 foto a Venezia. Ma, come sai, il mio blog non è dedicato solo a Venezia e quindi le pubblicherò, poco a poco, intervallandole con altre. Sono andato a rivedermi i post che hai pubblicato durante la mia assenza e ti faccio i miei più sinceri complimenti. Un cordiale saluto.
ReplyDeleteWell, I have been out of the loop too long! I went back and read the links to catch up... fine boys, mon amie.
ReplyDeleteLove the jazz!
Bises,
Genie

Not only is this iPhone's Exchange enterprise support aiming straight for the heart, severe swelling edema, difficulty breathing or a rash. This allows more blood flow into the penis and create hard, sustained erections. Then you can get over the social repercussions of waving this seven-inch viewfinder around on vacation.
