Live jazz & radio broadcast featuring Nick Rossi from the famed Top of the Mark
HERITAGE: Throughout the 1930's, 40's, & 50's one could tune-in to remote broadcasts of live performances in metropolitan meccas. This cutting-edge technology allowed families to gather around the radio to enjoy their favorite entertainers from near & far. The Hotel Mark Hopkins has deep ties to this art form. During WWII, KSFO operated from The Mark Hopkins' basement in an effort to remain shielded from enemy threats. During this period, Margorie Trumbull rose in prominence for celebrity interviews conducted at The Top of the Mark. The hotel was also home to one of the finest Supper Clubs in the nation: Peacock Court. Here, the social elite went to hobnob in the company of the world's top performers.
With our broadcast partner, KFQX - Racketeer Radio, Sunset Serenades ties the tremendous heritage of The Hotel Mark Hopkins with today's top jazz talents evocative of The golden days of radio. As we are no longer limited by the localized AM bandwidth, we can can share these special events with the world. Thanks for tuning-in!
