Another short update for Jazz from Geoff 

This Thursday May 27th we appear to have our audience of 30 already. DO check with Tracy tracy.georgiades@gmail.com  to see if you are on the list before coming to Hedsor Club.

For our second evening of covid rules jazz (no, sadly not a game) we will have Stuart Henderson on trumpet, Duncan Lamont jnr on tenor saxophone, Ken McCarthy on keyboard, Terry Davis on bass and of course Martin Hart on drums. The evening will start at 8.30pm. Entry £10

As I mentioned above, we are fully booked for this Thursday, but DO CHECK with Tracy to see if we have any cancellations. IF you have already booked, but find you can now no longer come, please let Tracy know and your place can be reassigned.

The government rules for an indoor gathering will apply until all rules are relaxed; try to be sensible with your distancing, wear a mask when away from your table. Hand sanitising gel will be available, please use it to reduce any risk of virus transmission.

Future Gigs

On June 3rd we have Lester Brown on trumpet with Mark Aston on reeds, plus Ken McCarthy keyboard, Martin Hart drums and a bass player yet to be finalised.

June 10th, we have our vibes friend Alan Graham coming to play, and we also hope to have Mike Wills back on reeds. 

Please book now via Tracy tracy.georgiades@gmail.com for any or all of these.

Last week we had with us a couple, Alex and Nicole, who were at Hedsor for the first time. Alex is a keen videographer and filmed a lot of the evening. He has made most of his footage available on YouTube and you can watch his films of our evening via the following links:-

Alex’s wife Nicole sadly suffers from both MS and Parkinson’s disease, and in seeking his permission to link to his video clips, which include shots of Nicole, he sent this reply:-

I'm grateful to yourselves/Hedsor SC for allowing me to film - I'm glad for you to use as much or as little as you wish. As for Nicole, I take the footage in part to show how much she enjoys it and the hugely positive benefit to her conditions and wellbeing; for that reason, the more you choose to show of Nicole the better it is for us and will hopefully open the eyes (and ears) of others to her plight and others who are also frail.

That’s it for now folks, don’t forget to book ahead with Tracy for the evenings you want to come.
