Jon Lord pictured in Palermo, Italy on April 28.
Together with the Orchestra Sinfonica V. Bellini di Palermo conducted by M° Carmelo Caruso, Jon performed Concerto for Group and Orchestra and a selection of solo and Deep Purple material.
He was joined onstage by Kasia Łaska on vocals, Anna Phoebe on violin, and local band Flower Stone (Rocco Tarantino, vocals; Massimo Avellone, guitar; Valter R. Iannuzzi, drums; and Andrea Marchello, bass).
I´m really looking forward to the studio recording of the concerto. I hope that Richie Blackmore would like to participate. That would be super!
World loses a great musician
