He has also just completed a tour with the great US singer Dianne Schurr in Italy where he is an extremely popular visitor.

jazz in the house

Georgia Mancio (vocals), Guillermo Rozenthuler (vocals / guitar), Arnie Somogyi (bass), Dave Ohm (drums)

The multi lingual singer Georgia Mancio has risen through a veritable forest of singers to become one of the UK’s most subtle and impressive artists whether performing classic standards or songs from Italy, Spain and Portugal.  Originally from Argentina, Guillermo has been described by Mark Murphy as “someone who rocked me with his amazing swinging versatility” For Georgia, who presented her co-written Songbook album with the legendary pianist Alan Broadbent all over Europe last Spring, this will be a contrast in style with the music of Cuba, Brazil and Chile to banish those early winter blues.  Don’t miss this, our London Jazz Festival show.

The Lauderdale House Cafe will be open from 6pm serving sausage rolls, frittata, cheese tarts, cakes and other light snacks along with a selection of teas, Illy coffee, wines, beers, including Peroni, Camden Pale Ale, London Pride, Aspall Cyder and Luscombe organic soft drinks.

chopin & champagne

nocturne – the romantic life of frederic chopin

HIGHGATEHASHEART is delighted to announce a fundraising concert, “Chopard & Champagne” on Sunday 19th November in support of vital refugee causes.

“Nocturne – The Romantic Life of Frederic Chopin“ is an evening of music and drama conceived by the internationally renowned concert pianist Lucy Parhamwith narrations by the celebrated actors Henry Goodman and Juliet Stevenson(a co-founder of Highgate Has Heart and local resident). The programme of words and music has been scripted and adapted from letters and diaries by Parham, chronicling the romantic life of one the greatest and most popular composers for solo piano – Frédéric Chopin. The narrative follows his turbulent relationship with the controversial literary figure George Sand, their time together in Majorca, his fragile health and his ultimate demise in poverty in Paris at the age of 39. The readings, with Frederic Chopin narrated by Goodman and George Sand by Stevenson, are interspersed with some of his most loved and poignant compositions played by Parham in the evocative setting of Lauderdale House.

Tickets includes drinks reception and concert performance.

Drinks reception from 7pm with concert starting at 8pm. The evening will end at 10pm with a short interval.

http://bit.ly/2xL31Ki

“Lucy Parham’s trailblazing evening concerts in which she fuses music and words with the help of some of our most distinguished actors, have become one of the must-see events on the musical calendar.”

BBC Music Magazine 5 stars *****

Proceeds from the evening will be donated on behalf of HighgateHasHeart to the 4 refugees charities we support: Help Refugees, Safe Passage, Islington Centre and Young Roots.

Ivo Neame (piano), George Crowley (tenor saxophone), Tom Farmer (bass), Martin France (drums)

Pianist and composer Ivo Neame has now reached European star status with his work with piano trio Phronesis and with Norwegian superstar saxophonist Marius Neset. A considerable leap up from those Kentish Town Loop Collective sessions of a few years ago. Having heard his own Quartet at this year’s Swanage Festival, where he delighted a full church venue of typical elderly mainstream jazz fans with his innovative but beautifully melodic and accessible music, we are fortunate to be able to attract such a busy musician to the House. If you think new wave Euro jazz is all about ice-cold intellectualism, come and have your prejudice confounded. At some points George Crowley almost sounds like one of those classic Texas tenors; there are real jazz roots in this music.

singing for humanity

sunday songfest

We are currently living in a refugee crisis unseen since the Second World War with approximately 65.3 million people now refugees, seeking asylum or internally displaced. Therefore we have decided to give these 2 concerts in aid of one of the most important charities in the world at the moment, working with refugees, Help Refugees.

1st concert 5pm:

Rachel Mildon – Soprano

Antoine Carrier – Tenor

Mozart, Purcell, Haydn, Beethoven, Brahms, Massenet, Verdi, Debussy, Chausson, Faure, Delius, Albeniz, Britten and more

2nd concert 7.45:

Roy Neilie – Tenor

Marcus Andrew Brentley – Baritone,

Anthony Philips – Bass baritone

Mozart, Bach, Mendelsohn, Schubert, Verdi, Donizetti, Offenbach, Bizet, Gurney, Ravel, Bernstein, Sondheim and more

Pianist – Richard Black

Musical direction – Idit Arad

From Help Refugees’ mission statement:

“Help Refugees is not simply another aid organisation. We work where governmental and other non-governmental bodies can (or will) not, filling the gaps and providing emergency aid and vital services to those affected by the global refugee crisis. We act fast to get aid and services directly and immediately to the people who need it most by identifying the most effective grassroots groups, local people, individual volunteers and refugees themselves active in the crisis and providing them with funding and support, enabling them to focus their time and energy on the vital work they do every day. Help Refugees are also operational where needed across Europe providing our experienced teams to maintain quality services and uphold dignity for refugees.”

To read more please go to their official website: www.helprefugees.org.uk

“For many years I have admired Idit as both a singer and a teacher of singing: she brings to all her musicmaking a lively professionalism and integrity, coupled with the gift of communication which inspires others to aspire to the same high standards. I have witnessed her in action as a teacher and have seen how quickly she can achieve positive results with committed students by pinpointing the specific areas of development relevant to each individual singer – the singers themselves are frequently surprised at the speed of their progress under Idit’s tuition. I enthusiastically recommend Idit as an exceptional teacher who commands international respect.”
