Hedsor Jazz
Our band will be as normal
(as the band can be) on Thursday. The Clive Burton Quintet are never boring, sometimes I am astounded by how good they are and just how lucky we all are in being able to listen to such quality jazz every week. But variety is the spice of life and we do have a number of "different" events
coming up soon.
In March, on 16th
we have singer Alison Bentley coming with guitarist Kevin Armstrong. I may have
got the date wrong last week, but it will be 16th March!
Clive might
be doing the community a service that day, so Mike Wills, our sax section, will
be coming with them, as they all come from around the Oxford area. Do look at
both guests web sites. It will be well worth your while making sure you can
come that night.
On March 30th we
still anticipate having a saxophone rehearsal group joining our regular rhythm
section for the first half of the evening, followed by our regular quintet for
the second half. This should be an evening with a real difference. It is good for Hedsor Jazz to be able to support aspiring musicians in
their performance aspiration!
Someone who doesn’t need a performing
nudge up the aspirational tree is Tracey Mendham. She has asked to come and
celebrate her birthday with us on April 6th. So here is another entry for you
to pencil in your diary (OK, it might not be pencil to paper in these days of
electronic diaries).
Finally we are planning another
special evening as a money raiser for Cancer Research UK. Put May 18th
in your diary now. We are trying to recruit at least one special guest, watch
this blog.
That’s about it for this
Tuesday, maybe more news later.
