Odd-Arne Jacobsen is to have the honour of opening the Robert Normann Museum which will form a part of the Musical Instrument Academy in Sarpsborg
The opening will take place Thursday 14.th September 2000, marked by a solo guitar spot with Odd-Arne Jacobsen. Over the last few years, Odd-Arne has presented his guitar jazz in China, Japan, Russia, France and the U.S.A. - including a solo concert in the Weil Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall in New York. Considering that Rune Gustavsson has played with Stan Getz, Zoot Zims, Arne Domnerus, Benny Carter and Monica Zetterlund, among others. It should be a homage worthy of the guitar/music legend Robert Normann. Here's a picture of Robert Normann
during one of his last performances. A brilliant guitarist near the end of
his carrear. He was 73 years old when the picture was taken. |
