DEEP PURPLE Keyboard Legend
JON LORD To Perform Concerto For Group And Orchestra In Essen
Keyboard legend
JON LORD is gearing up for his concert in Essen, Germany on February 3rd in the Grugahalle, where he used to perform with both
DEEP PURPLE and
WHITESNAKE. "We played several times in the Grugahalle in Essen," says Lord. "I think one of the first big concerts that Deep Purple played when we started to get well known in 1969/1970 in Germany was probably in the Grugahalle. I played there with Whitesnake when I was with that band in the late 1970s/early 1980s and then with Deep Purple again. It will be fun to go back to this place with an orchestra."
For the February 3 concert,
Jon Lord will perform the Concerto For Group And Orchestra and assorted solo pieces together with the Hagen Philharmonic Orchestra and band incl.
Steve Balsamo (vocals) and
Kasia Laska (vocals).
