Jazz on the Waterfront (Almere)

On the subject of Almere, the Schowburg (glass theatre complex) has a beautiful watefront resteraunt which hosts jazz session on the last sunday of everymonth. With tickets from 10 euros it is not only a bargain but a lovely way to wind down.

I remember sitting there with my macchiato latte and playing with the flower centerpiece on tht table as i waited for the jazz trio to arrive. Occassionally i would gaze outside the glass waterfront observing the people sitting by the lake and soaking up the sun.

Finally the performers arrived (Franz Von Chossey trio); starting at 4pm they delighted and wowed the crowd with a great line-up. Natually most people were transfixed and focused on the trio all excpt the one young man who left his seat at almost every 5 minutes to pick up a beer...

Thanks to youtube you can also enjoy the music of Franz Von Chosey i chose my favourite "Stranger Walked By"
