Vinyl just ordered, estimated delivery date is November 21, 2025. I saw the late Zbigniew Namysłowski in Toruń, twin town of Göttingen in Poland, on February 23, 2019. He was honored by the Rector of the University of Toruń at the university aula on his 80th birthday! His son Jacek (tb) was in his band.

October 1 Dave Holland - 1946 Memories: Dave Holland was at the Göttingen Jazz Festival with Chris Potter, Jason Moran, and Eric Harland in November 7, 2009. After the soundcheck, he had a long chat backstage with Majid Bekkas. After the gig around midnight, he said goodbye, but his companions stayed until 4:00 a.m. and took part in the session in the theater cellar. The reason was Harland's birthday on November 8, and a highlight for us!
