“Just two years ago, we persuaded the wonderful music venue St John’s Smith Square - previously the exclusive preserve of great classical music, to allow a JBGB Events presentation. Our concerts with the Clare Teal Mini- Big Band and a celebration of Ella Fitzgerald’s Centenary with Liane Carroll and Claire Martin, were musical triumphs and sold out events.

 

We returned last year with more from Liane and Claire plus Joe Stilgoe and his Mighty Big Band with two packed houses of happy satisfied customers.

 

So with thanks to St John’s, we return in 2019 with three days of EFG London Jazz Festival Concerts. Classic Jazz for Four Hands Piano with Stephanie Trick and Paolo Alderighi; The Voices Of Jazz with VoCollective, Etcetera and The Swingles, climaxing with the Music Of Gil Evans , the greatest jazz orchestrator, with music from his Miles Ahead album and the complete Porgy and Bess Suite embracing the authentic original orchestrations courtesy of his son Miles Evans

 

We hope you will enjoy this feast of jazz across November 22.23.24”
