This week at Hedsor Jazz
We are pleased to welcome
back one of Britain’s best tenor saxophonists, Simon Spillett.
Simon and his Quartet at St Piran's
Simon is an award winning
musician, and a great friend to Hedsor Jazz (as we are to him!!). It will be
great to hear him paired again with our own Clive Burton on trombone.
Do join us in this
celebration of post war modern jazz, and YOU can then say you have gone
for a burton!! Music starts at 8.30pm if you have paid your £6 to get in.
We are only 3 weeks away
now from our Christmas Party on December 17th. Tickets are now
available at £10 each, and as is now usual, this price will include a light
buffet supper. We start at 8pm on such occasions, just to give you more time to
eat!!
Our guests this year will
include two superb musicians who have never been to Hedsor Jazz before. Singer
Sarah Moule and trumpeter Steve Waterman. Our regular bass player has been
urging me to get Sarah along to Hedsor now for some months. She sings regularly
with big band “The Sound of 17” for which Ken Rankine plays bass, (and has done
so for many peoples lifetimes)! Sarah has a number of CD’s to her name, and
also a number of YouTube appearances, try https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=99qFjZQg42Y
for starters.
For those elite who got to
The St Piran’s Jazz Day you will not need to be told of Steve Waterman’s
ability, as he was with us that day. For those who weren’t there (shame on you)
don’t miss him again when he is playing so near to us and for so little an
entrance fee. He is more than just good, he is the professor of jazz trumpet at
Trinity Collage of Music!!
Until Thursday, drive (and
walk) safely, after Thursday…….just carry on doing the same!
