In Memoriam

Rick Troxel
11 Sept. 1954 - 5 July 2011

Rick Troxel was one of the founding members of the UN Music Club, in 2004, and was instrumental in putting the club on track musically as the band leader for the jazz ensemble that got the Club started.

The video presentation below is a compilation of clips from the UN Music Club Jazz Band's performance at the Fête de la musique, Nyon, in 2005. It highlights Rick's virtuosity on the keyboard.

Rick also performed with the Club at the World Information Society Day in 2007.

We will all surely miss him.
