Zankel Hall

2004-10-28 Bruce Hornsby (solo)

Zankel Hall, Carnegie Hall

 

 I was very excited to see Bruce's first performance at Carnegie Hall, and to have a truly perfect seat to watch Hornsby at the piano. At this point he had not yet made a practice of giving solo performances, so this was a rare and important event for him at the renown Carnegie Hall.

Members of the Noisemakers and members of Bruce’s family were on hand for this event, and many were sitting in the seats around me. Bruce's wife turned around and introduced herself to me to let me know who she was.

When I met JT Thomas that night I discussed the song "Tango King" with him and specifically mentioned that I liked the the caliope organ sound - and he told me that he had personally designed that organ patch.
