Late again I’m afraid, but with news of almost 2 months of glorious jazz for you to look forward to.

Below you will find our listings up until the end of October. Please do try and come to as many as you can, we hope to continue the program, but only

a) if we are allowed to. (the covid infection rate is currently 383 in 100,000 in RBWM) and

b) if enough of you come out to listen to the marvellous music that Hedsor Jazz is currently providing. This is not just a financial consideration. Musicians like to play to an audience!

Last weeks session with Lester and Al Nicholls was truly wonderful. One regular attendee said Al was his favourite sax player of all time, and made a nice donation as well as paying his entry fee. Well, Mr Anonymous, you will see AL Nicholls will be with us again in a couple of week time!

Photos of the night are below, I will put my recording of it into DropBox later in the week and let you all have the download link later.
