Bigband Nuenen, the last band of which Richard was musical director, will also make its presence felt. In between performances, a special combo, consisting of befriended musicians, will provide additional musical entertainment.
The afternoon will end with a jam session. Come along and celebrate Richard Beeren's rich musical legacy in Café zaal Bij Van Dijk!
