Ben Crosland with Brandon Allen (saxophones), Chris Allard (guitar), Steve Lodder (keys) and Sebastian de Krom (drums)
Yorkshire based bass guitarist Ben Crosland is a fascinating composer and arranger who regularly works with top London players. A few years ago we presented his ‘brass band’ composition, with great success. This time he has re-configured some of the music which made such an impression on him as a thirteen year old playing along to Kinks singles on the Dansette in his bedroom.
This celebration of local music legend Ray Davies will be part of the Highgate Festival 2019!
As The Jazz Mann wrote “the Quintet is not into artful or ironic post-modern de-construction. Instead Crosland’s love of his source material shines through loud and clear.” Crosland’s rich palette contains up-tempo swing, Latin tinged balladry, jazz waltz and modern New Orleans feel, which he uses to enhance, but not swamp, the rich, melodic content of Ray Davies’s classic material.
“...with this sharp, cogent collection, a dedicated follower of Ray Davies has made him a well-respected jazz composer too” – The Times
The finale of this season of Jazz in the House is Ben Crosland Quintet plays the Ray Davies Songbook, featuring Brandon Allen, Chris Allard, Steve Lodder and Sebastian de Krom. Doors open at 8pm and the concert begins at 8.30pm. The bar will be open from late afternoon for drinks and snacks.

From Boulogne to Brahms, Piazzolla to Pejačević, and despite the lack of alliteration, even ‘Corelli to Jazz’, there is something for everyone to discover and enjoy!
Concert 9
"Corelli to Jazz"
A rare opportunity to hear renowned violinist Thomas Gould and jazz pianist extraordinaire Gwilym Simcock as they join forces to take you on an improvisatory journey like no other. At the heart of the programme, the duo explore Corelli's Violin Sonatas and see what happens when the improvisatory nature of the writing is taken a step further...

Laura Jurd and Corrie Dick (of the Mercury Prize-nominated band Dinosaur) join Liam Noble and Ruth Goller for a stunning evening of Jazz in the House!
Composer-performer Laura Jurd’s distinct voice as an improvising trumpet player is at the heart of everything she creates. Her music celebrates and innovates the rich traditions of jazz and folk music, whilst often reflecting her love of The Beatles and Stravinsky to name two notable influences. Her compositions dig into something primal, earthy and human, whilst taking twists and turns that both invite surprise and evoke the inevitable.

The Genius of Gershwin

Enamoured with both genres and convinced that each could bring something to the table, he mastered the art of combining jazz and classical to create his famous signature sound. In this programme The Julian Bliss Quintet presents their unique take on some of Gershwin’s most famous compositions with original arrangements and adaptations.

She has released several CDs, each one to critical acclaim, including Made Up and Atlas And Vulcana (with her septet) and Smoke And Mirrors (with tenor saxophonist, the late Bobby Wellins). In 2016 she formed Four Plus Three, an ensemble featuring her trio with string quartet. The following year, they performed at the 606 with special guest John Williams (Kate’s father) on guitar. John also features on Kate’s album with vocalist Georgia Mancio: Finding Home: Kate Williams’ Four Plus Three Meets Georgia Mancio. It won album of the year at the 2020 Parliamentary Jazz Awards.

Booking information
This performance will take place on the Tea Lawn at the back of Lauderdale House.
If you would like to sit together, please book together, as this allows us to assign each booking a socially distanced space.
Chairs will not be provided so please bring either a picnic blanket or a chair to make yourself comfortable. Audience members with chairs will be seated behind those on the ground to make sure that everyone has a good view. If you are booking as a group, the whole group will need to be on chairs or on blankets, rather than a mixture of the two.
We have a limited number of picnic tables and benches available as group tickets – book these early to avoid disappointment.
If you have a disability or any special requirements please get in touch with us so that we can best accommodate you.
Weather
The performance will continue regardless of the weather unless unsafe. Please plan for all eventualities and remember to bring a waterproof layer and a warm jumper. We prefer waterproofs to umbrellas because umbrellas can obstruct views. Don’t forget that if you are on a blanket the ground may be wet so make sure you have a blanket with a waterproof side or bring a plastic sheet. There are no refunds for shows cancelled due to the weather.
Food and Drink
The cafe/bar will be open selling light snacks and drinks before the performance starts and during the interval.
You are also welcome to bring your own picnic to enjoy on the Tea Lawn as you watch the performance.

Jazz in the House 2024: Immy Churchill Quartet
Get ready for the Immy Churchill Quartet – emerging new stars who are taking the jazz scene by storm.
The Immy Churchill quartet celebrates their love of incredible jazz singers such as Nat King Cole, Ella Fitzgerald and Blossom Dearie in this evening of storytelling through The American Songbook and other great songwriters. Immy Churchill is recognised as a “rising star” on the jazz scene and will be joined by fellow leading lights Scottie Thompson, Jonah Evans and John Williamson.
Fresh from the Royal Academy of Music, Immy cites her influences from Ella Fitzgerald and Frank Sinatra to Joni Mitchell and Norma Winstone. She is already making a name for herself on the London scene, playing at venues such as Ronnie Scott’s and Pizza Express and The Royal Albert Hall.
“Each time I have heard Churchill sing, I have noted not just her ability to impress, by bringing understanding and a sense of music clarity to complex vocal lines, but also to affect an audience emotionally, to draw in our attention and to give memorable performances which stay in the mind.” London Jazz News.
We are proud to support emerging young artists as part of our Jazz in the House programme and are looking forward to welcoming the Immy Churchill Quartet who will be filling in last minute for the Clark Tracey Quintet.
Programmed by Blow the Fuse.
