#Jazz @ the Philharmonic #LiveMusic @ #LincolnDrillHall 09/04/2016

Jazz at the Philharmonic

Saturday 09 Apr 2016   8:00pm at Lincoln Drill Hall

For forty years jazz impresario Norman Granz took this show, which originally took place at the Philharmonic Auditorium in Los Angeles, around the world featuring many of the greatest names in jazz.

Tonight, a stellar 10-piece line-up presents its tribute to ‘Jazz at the Philharmonic’ using some of the most exciting players in the UK, under the direction of the ebullient Pete Long (M.D. of Ronnie Scott’s Big Band and long time sidesman with Jools Holland).

The excitement and frenzy of those original shows will be replicated by the showmen and virtuosos appearing on the Drill Hall stage.

‘Bristling, hard-swinging, surging, big-toned…......what a joy’.
