In November 1979 Bert Kaempfert and his 40-strong orchestra went on tour and featuring soloists Ack van Rooyen on trumpet, Jiggs Whigham on trombone and Swedish jazz singer Sylvia Vrethammar. This tour had been preceded by a concert given on 20 June in Neu-Isenburg’s Hugenottenhalle, which Hessen Radio happened to record for television, thus making it possible, ten years later, to transfer this now historic recording on to video disc. Requiring complex digital audio-master processing, the task was carried out in London’s Mayfair Studios by John Hudson, one of the world’s leading sound engineers. In April 1991 the video disc was replaced by a video cassette.

We are very pleased that “the concert event of the year”, as it was described in the press at that time, is now available on DVD.
