Jack DeJohnette - Wikipedia

First time I saw Jack deJohnette live, almost 40 years ago, was in Vienna, an outerworldly concert with Jarrett and Peacock, but most impressive was this melodious drummer hovering over his drum set to effortlessly paint rhythms. A genius will be missed.

Neben Klimawandel, Artensterben & Krieg waren die vielen armen Menschen, die jeden Tag heulend im Supermarkt zusammenbrechen weil sie den Veggieburger nicht von ihrem Fleischburger unterscheiden konnten, sicherlich eines der größten Probleme der Menschheit. Gut dass wir wenigstens das gelöst haben.

Spent the weekend at the #MoersFestival. Weather was mediocre, not all organisation perfect, but this is the most daring, humanistic, emotional, in short: best festival on earth. Cheers and thanks to a fantastic team putting this miracle together every year #Jazzsky

Das Jazz-Festival in Moers hat es gewagt und eine Diskussionsrunde zu „Kunst, Kritik oder Antisemitismus“ sowie das Statement „Breaking the Silence“ ins Programm aufgenommen. Man kann schon, wenn man will

Today the One Ocean Science Conference #OOSC kicks off, followed by the UN Ocean Conference #UNOC3 next week. We asked some of the HIFMB scientists who will be attending the summits about their activities at the conference and their expectations.
