From 1979 onwards, Club Le Dreher was located in the basement of the building, Rue Saint-Denis No. 1, on the corner of Place du Châtelet . During the performances of numerous jazz greats, some recordings were made that were published, such as duets by Mal Waldron / Steve Lacy , as well as concerts by Roy Burrowes , Walter Davis junior , Marion Brown with Hilton Ruiz . It also occurred u. a. John Surman / Kenny Wheeler , Anthony Davis , Sonny Stitt , Kai Winding , Teddy Edwards , Philly Joe Jones and Stanley Cowell .
Chet Baker's concert in Dreher with musicians such as Karl Ratzer and Riccardo Del Fra on February 29, 1980 was released as a film (director: Léon Terjanian ). Roscoe Mitchell dedicated The Le Dreher Suite to the club , which appeared on his album In Walked Buckner (1998). After a change of ownership in the mid-1980s, Le Dreher changed its program and abruptly ended its activities as a venue for jazz music.
