Song sung by Isabella’s great-grandchild Ameet Kanon (aka Queen George) , who explained today – Friday , December 1, 2023 – at the premiere :

“The Abbey – it’s been so special and personal keeping you to myself, but your message was always too big for me not to share it …

… This is Isabella Weinreb Castegnier. She is my great-grandmother. On April 19th, 1943, pregnant with my grandmother, she jumped out of a moving train headed to Auschwitz. She was being sent to her death, simply because she was a Jew. She understood that it was now or never, die at the destination or die trying, so she jumped. In the years to follow this epic jump, the Abbeys of Brussels became a place of hiding, survival, and safety for them time and time again.”

‘Entartete Art’ 1935 – Coleman Hawkins & Leo de la Fuente in Holland | 20231123


‘Entartete Art’ 1935 – Coleman Hawkins & Leo de la Fuente in Holland

American saxophonist Coleman Hawkins announces and plays – accompanied by Leo de la Fuente on piano – on his tenor saxophone ‘I wished that I were twins’.

In 1934, Coleman Hawkins left the Fletcher Henderson Orchestra and Amerika, moved to Europe, and joined the Jack Hylton Orchestra in England. Hylton and his band made regular ‘continental’ tours, and started another European tour January 1935 accompanied by Coleman Hawkins in Holland. At the end of January 1935 Hawkins joins the dutch band The Rambers … for 8 days … because Hawkins was denied entry to Germany because of his race, while Hylton and his band continued their tour without him and play for eight days at the Berlin Philharmonic Hall.

To end this special week with Hawkins well, the bandleader of The Ramblers – Theo Uden Masman – arranged with Decca for recordings 4 february 1935 in Pulchri Studio in The Hague, Holland, including this : I wish I were twins…that was also recorded on film by Polygoon (Polygoontoon) for the dutch cinema news for next week .

Coleman Hawkins is accomponied here on film by the dutch jazz pioneer Leo de la Fuente on piano , playing ‘I wished that I were twins’ . After the recordings, Hawkins moves further into Europe.

Leo – Leonard Henriques – de la Fuente, who was born Jewish in Amsterdam 28 March 1902, was deported by the nazi’s to Auschwitz on 2 November 1942, and died 30 April 1944 ‘somewhere in Mid Europe’.

Steam Train Gouda-Alphen Holland 1934 | 20231113


Stoomtrein Gouda-Alphen Holland 1934 (english below)
NL – Zondag 7 oktober 1934 – Opening spoorlijn Gouda-Waddinxveen-Boskoop-Alphen in Holland met feestelijke aankomst van de stoomtrein op station Boskoop.
NB. Film toont beelden van langs de spoorlijn en toont achtereenvolgens herkenbaar bij naam de stations van resp. Waddinxveen en Boskoop. Echter het eerste shot van een ‘stations gebouw’ in deze film herken ik als ook beeld van station Boskoop, terwijl suggestie is dat dit Gouda zou zijn — en de mensenmassa langs de lijn in het derde shot zal ook wel in Gouda zijn.
Bewerking van Polygoontoon bioscoopjournaal week 41, 1934 | Open Beelden | Beeld & Geluid .

EN – Sunday 7 October 1934 – Opening of the Gouda-Waddinxveen-Boskoop-Alphen railway line in Holland with festive arrival of the steam train at Boskoop station.
NB. Film shows images from along the railway line and successively shows the stations of respectively recognizable by name Waddinxveen and Boskoop. However, I recognize the first shot of a ‘station building’ in this film as also an image of Boskoop station, while the suggestion is that this would be Gouda – and the crowd of people along the line in the 3rd shot will probably also be in Gouda.
