New Chairman in the Ben Webster Foundation

New Youngblood Jesper Lovedale, saxophonist and former chairman of Jazz Denmark, takes the lead in The Ben Webster Foundation, while boardmembers Jesper Thilo and Ole Matthiessen are present and Søren Damving clicked the photo where Henrik Wolsgaard-Iversen reminds the new chairman, that everything we do in the Foundation has to be in the Spirit of Ben Webster. That has been the credo since 1975. Iversen believes he has been chairman since 1986 or so, and after more than 30 years in the chairman's seat he thinks it's time to slide sideways. Iversen will continue as a member of the board. He was a great friend of Ben Webster during the years Webster lived in Copenhagen. There are rare photoes and several Ben Webster drawings by Klaus Albrectsen in Iversen's impressive Copenhagen appartment, where Ben Webster was a regular guest.
