With Annie Whitehead | trombone, Richard Bundy | piano

Would you like a bit of friendly help with your phone, laptop or tablet? Just head to the Highgate School Library for an afternoon of free, informal one-to-one computer familiarisation sessions over a nice cup of coffee. We do tea as well. And cake!
If you don’t yet possess any electronic gadgets, don’t worry, we do and we’d love you to come and play with them.
“This is so wonderful! It’s easy – when you know how! Thank you” says 75 year old Highgate Coffee & Computers friend, who has just worked out how to move all his pictures from his phone to his tablet.
If you want more info, give Stuart a call on 020 8347 2411 (quoting Highgate Coffee & Computers). You can also email us on highgatecoffeeandcomputers@gmail.com to tell us what you want to know more about.
Please note the volunteers at these sessions are pupils from the school, ranging in age from 11 to 18 years old. The School has a duty of care to these young people and would be very grateful if you could be mindful of maintaining appropriate interaction with them. Please consider issues such as your language, your expectations regarding the type of matter you raise with the pupils, and the sort of information that the pupils may see on your documents or particular webpages.
If you have any queries then please don’t hesitate to raise them with the members of staff at the session.
If you plan to come, it would be helpful to know, though it is not obligatory.
Warm regards
The Highgate Coffee & Computers volunteers

alec dankworth’s world spirit
thursday 25 may
Alec Dankworth | bass guitar, Emily Dankworth | vocals
Julian Siegel | sax, Winston Clifford | percussion
Formed out of Alec’s love of music from the Iberian peninsula, World Spirit crosses the Straits of Gibraltar into Africa and beyond. Alec has joined forces with daughter Emily Dankworth, leading tenorist Julian Siegel and drummer Winston Clifford to explore melodies from Africa, South America and other continents from a jazz perspective. With tunes by Duke Ellington, Bela Fleck, Antonio-Carlos Jobim, Abdullah Ibrahim and WC Handy originating from Ireland, Venezuela, Bulgaria, South Africa, Mali and Brazil, World Spirit offers an evening of global song and improvisation.
Alec Dankworth has worked with artists as diverse as Stephane Grappelli, Abdullah Ibrahim and Van Morrison. After studying at Berklee College of Music, Alec became a member of various groups, notably Clark Tracey, Julian Joseph and Nigel Kennedy. During a period of residency in New York he played with the Duke Ellington Orchestra and joined the Dave Brubeck Quartet. As well as running his own bands, he is a member of Ginger Baker’s Jazz Confusion.
Emily Dankworth’s voice is forged from the DNA of Jazz royalty. She has sung in choirs all her life, and in 2011 studied jazz vocals at the Guildhall School of Music. She now sings in the acapella group Vive and has performed in the UK and Europe. She also sings with Alec’s Spanish Accents and works with her own group.

A concert of popular music from the beginning of the last century. Performed in style by this authentic ensemble consisting of string quartet, piano flute and oboe, praised for their lively interpretation of the genre.
The Aspidistra Drawing Room Orchestra is an orchestra that specialises in the type of light classical music that is usually referred to as “Palm Court Music” or “Salon Music”. In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, there was an enormous appetite for light music. The Aspidistra Drawing Room Orchestra started, from very small beginnings: a group of friends and a folder of music. However, since the mid 1990s, they have steadily expanded their repertoire, continually hunting for new material.
Aspidistra made their Radio debut when the BBC used some tracks from the Best of Palm Court as background music for the radio play Tears of War on Remembrance Day 2002. Since then their recordings have been heard regularly on Brian Kay’s light programme and as background music for other radio plays. Their music was also used for The Producer Prince, a TV documentary based on interviews with Prince Alessandro Tasca di Cuto, the son of an illustrious Sicilian family. Sadly his father squandered the family fortunes and died penniless in 1927.

Written by John Cooper
Inspired by DOSTOYEVSKY
Direction – Harry Meacher
Costume Design – Andrew McRobb
Set Design – Bryan Hands
John Cooper takes Dostoyevsky’s ‘underground man’ from the nineteenth century novella Notes From Underground and transposes him from St. Petersburg to a subterranean, contemporary London, revealing the universality of the Russian author’s writings
Cooper’s play, based on the second part of the novella, A Story of the Falling Sleet, depicts the tragedy of a man turned in on himself, a man who both craves and despises affection.
A cast of seven actors portray the wide variety of contemporary characters that inhabit the man’s underground world where sex is regarded as a negotiable commodity, where the protagonist finds himself overwhelmed by a society that exploits rather than alleviates his inner pain.

kofi/barnes aggregation
thursday 1 june
With John Turville | piano, Adam King | bass
Rod Youngs |drums
Now here’s a mouth watering prospect, two of the most accomplished and exciting saxophone players anywhere, coming together from very different backgrounds. This exiting new band showcases the contrasting alto saxophone talents of the co-leaders. Kofi is a heavier toned, blues drenched wailer of the Jackie McLean School, whilst Barnes has taken the lighter, crisply articulated phrasing of Art Pepper as his guiding light. Put the two different approaches together and the chemistry is instantly explosive, producing some of the most committed, yet accessible, hard swinging music around.
Barnes, arguably the UK’s most popular jazz musician, has had a career which has taken in every aspect of mainstream jazz from Humphrey Lytelton to composing musical theatre with the late Alan P. Plater and innumerable commisions for all kinds of Big Bands. Kofi, after studying at Berklee’s famous jazz conservatory, has played with many of the world’s leading jazz musicians such as Donald Byrd and Eddie Henderson. His own groups have won BBC and Parliamentary Jazz Awards…..and he is one of the few jazz players to have been nominated for a MOBO Award. The rhythm section is ‘new generation’ sparky and it should be an evening of genuine surprises.

John Cooper takes Dostoyevsky’s ‘underground man’ from the nineteenth century novella Notes From Underground and transposes him from St. Petersburg to a subterranean, contemporary London, revealing the universality of the Russian author’s writings
Cooper’s play, based on the second part of the novella, A Story of the Falling Sleet, depicts the tragedy of a man turned in on himself, a man who both craves and despises affection.
A cast of seven actors portray the wide variety of contemporary characters that inhabit the man’s underground world where sex is regarded as a negotiable commodity, where the protagonist finds himself overwhelmed by a society that exploits rather than alleviates his inner pain.
