It was an absolute pleasure to host Larry Appelbaum at JAM MUSIC LAB and the Jewish Museum Vienna. At JAM MUSIC LAB Larry Appelbaum held a lecture on music business: “So You Made Your CD, Now What?” Here he gave practical advice on jazz career development for the institute’s students.
In connection with the exhibition Stars of David – The Sound of the 20th Century, which can be seen until October 2nd, 2016, at the Jewish Museum Vienna, Larry Appelbaum held a lecture on “Jews in Jazz“.
Following the lecture, it was a great pleasure for me to participate in the podium discussion with Werner Rosenberger and Alfred Stalzer.
