Jazz At The Movies: This unique group was formed especially to interpret some of the more interesting movie soundtracks in a jazz idiom. From Bond to Bacharach, Dankworth to Disney and Porter to Pinter, these musical gems of the silver screen are a great way to celebrate the meeting point of song craft and swing-craft. JATM features Joanna Eden on vocals, ‘the UK’s answer to Diana Krall’ ……. say Time Out, together with award winning saxophonist Alan Barnes, bassist Arnie Somogyi, drummer George Double and pianist Chris Ingham, ‘One of Britain’s best singer-pianists …. sophisticated tribute …. charming work’ ….. say the London Evening Standard of his highly acclaimed ‘Hoagy’ album, celebrating the great American songwriter Hoagy Carmichael. From John Dankworth’s sultry noir ballad, “All Gone” (The Servant, 1963) through to the exotic kitsch of ‘From Russia With Love’ and the extrovert, feel-good swing of “Everybody Wants To Be A Cat” (The Aristocats, 1970), the highly exuberant and entertaining program will delight movie song-buffs, and jazz lovers alike. ‘Movie songs like these provide good material for the best jazz singers. Joanna Eden and her first class band have a ball with them …. and so does the audience!’……… ‘ Jazz Journal. 8.30pm Ticket prices £12 in advance & £14 on the door
