Freetown, 31. May 2024
Honoured to be invited to a Jazz Evening by The Groovy Colours Band, presented by the Ballanta Academy of Music and Performing Arts in Freetown, Sierra Leone, as the only woman on an instrument I had a truly memorable experience with a keyboard and a surprisingly flexible pedal.
When anything that can go wrong, will go wrong….
It all started in a way that the piano I was promised was limited to the piano sound of a keyboard, but hey, as a musician you learn to improvise.
See an excerpt of my performance of a jazz medley, made of
- Part I & IV of the Köln Concert by Keith Jarrett
- Summertime by George Gershwin
- I will survive by Dino Fekaris and Freddie Perren

Special thanks to the Ballanta Academy of Music and Performing Arts for providing me with above video memories and the chance to join an overall first jazz music evening in Sierra Leone.
