Albert George "Al" Hibbler was an American baritone vocalist who sang with Duke Ellington's orchestra before having several pop hits as a solo artist. Some of his singing is classified as rhythm and blues, but he is best classified as a bridge between R&B and traditional pop music. Hibbler left Ellington's band in 1951 after a dispute over his wages. In 1954 he released a more successful album, Al Hibbler Sings Duke Ellington, and in 1955, he started recording with Decca Records, with immediate success.

Al Hibbler (August 16, 1915-April 24, 2001) was a vocalist with several pop hits. Born Albert George Hibbler in Tyro, Mississippi, he was blind from birth. Hibbler attended a school for the blind in Little Rock, Arkansas where he joined the school choir. He won an amateur talent contest in Memphis, Tennessee, where he first worked with local bands and started his own band.

Al Hibbler & Rahsaan Roland Kirk 1972. Best Jazz for a Cloudy Day 1956. After the Lights Go Down Low. Jazz Music 1956. While other major artists gave generously to the cause, Hibbler actually marched with protesters and was arrested twice, once in New Jersey in 1959 and again in Alabama in 1963 (after he led an anti-segregation protest). Though the major labels backed away from the potential controversy of owning his contract, Hibbler did gain support from an important source - Frank Sinatra signed him to Reprise and released an LP, Monday Every Day, in 1961. Hibbler recorded very sparingly after that. He collaborated with Rahsaan Roland Kirk on a 1972 LP for Atlantic (A Meeting of the Times), but resurfaced.

The Bruegel exhibition in Vienna is the setting for an amazing encounter. About half of all the extant works by Pieter Bruegel the Elder are on show. Many of these international loans are so old and fragile that they hardly ever travel, and many of the works on show in the Bruegel exhibition have never before left their hometowns. Sabine Pénot, the curator of the exhibition, on the show. There are a number of reasons why Vienna is the ideal location for this encounter. It marks the first time that works produced by Bruegel in different media – paintings, drawings and prints – have been united in a single exhibition.
