Memories

1991 probably had one of the finest line-ups in the festival’s history: Miles Davis, Sonny Rollins, Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea, Michel Petrucciani, George Benson, Joe Zawinul, John McLaughlin, Wayne Shorter, Benny Carter… and not forgetting the Duke Ellington and Count Basie orchestras, but without their founders, alas. The Club was created and moved into the Verrière des Cordeliers in Sainte-Colombe. The Place de l’Hôtel de Ville stage welcomed international groups.
