Karl Ratzer with the Larry Porter Trio

Look For The Silver Lining

 


In the summer of 2011 the city of Berlin was blessed by the appearance of jazz master Karl Ratzer, who brought with him his special brand of guitar playing and vocalizing. An institution in his home town of Vienna, Karl hadn't been to Berlin in many years. Thanks to the jazz club Badenscher Hof, he had the opportunity to perform with the Larry Porter Trio for an enthusiastic audience of old and new fans.
