It is still Tuesday,
but
a bit later in the day than is normal, but still time for me to tell you that
this Thursday October 30th we have a jazz music evening of distinct
interest. One where we put together the artistic ability of a trumpeter more
used to swing and tunes from jazz past with a prize winning saxophonist who is
on the modern side of bop. Both have appeared many times before at Hedsor, and
it will be exciting to see how they combine
Behind them will be Ken McCarthy, Al Pirrie and Mike Jeffries (our usual rhythm section). Put all this mix in a room, add a little heat (please Hedsor Bar) and let the result stir you! It will be fun!
Who are they? Lester Brown and Alam Nathoo of course!!

Do
come and support live jazz.
Yes
the evenings are dark and the temperature cool! But modern jazz is cool (man)!
The Hedsor Jazz welcome is always warm!
We have a full program for November, and as hinted last week, December and January will only have 2 sessions in each month but they are already fully booked.
Below is a jpeg of our November poster.
November 20th is now fully
booked, and I will eventually reissue the poster, but we are pleased to tell
you that Matt Hill on Trumpet and his flat mate John
Alcock will be on Tenor with our usual supportive trio behind them. John’s
website tells us that “John Alcock is a jazz saxophonist, woodwind player and
teacher based in London. A recent graduate of the Guildhall School of Music and
Drama, John has performed at venues including the Vortex, the 606 Club,
Oliver's jazz bar and Alfies Soho, both with his own band and in other
musician's projects”.

Matt we know from past
experience of his fine trumpet playing at Hedsor. He was last with us in September
Matt with us in September
Last week Hedsor Jazz played
host 2 two musicians who have done everything and been everywhere. Duncan Lamont
Jr played and told stories of music from shows and cinema, and played the tunes
with a swing. Trumpeter Pete Rudeforth brought his experience of the Big Chris
Barber band to little old Hedsor, playing like Cootie Williams. Totally
wonderful music from two star musicians.
But we do need more people to
come and listen. AND ENJOY
