Filmmaker Woody Allen and his jazz band played to an enamored crowd of 3,000 in Poland over the weekend, according to an Associated Press report. The director, playing the clarinet, was accompanied by his New Orleans Jazz Band for a performance of traditional jazz.
“We will do our best to entertain you,” Allen told the audience at Warsaw’s largest concert hall, Sala Kongresowa, at the beginning of the two-hour concert. Allen’s solo parts, as well as those of other band members, were met with cheering and applause. He received a standing ovation at the end of the show.
Allen plays on a weekly basis at a small club in New York City, but rarely plays outside of Manhattan or at large venues. The 73-year-old Allen, whose latest movie was Vicky Cristina Barcelona, resides in New York.
