• 15 May | Aldevis Tibaldi London Jazz Ensemble

Aldevis Tibaldi's London Ensemble delivers beautiful music that stirs the emotions of listeners with all tastes. Although the genre is jazz, the tunes are accessible, unpretentious and exude charm, passion and many a delicious groove. With the exception of a few choice covers, this dynamic set is all original material, written and composed by Aldevis. At times driving and powerful, at times delicate and lyrical, the sextet performs with superb unity for the song. Whether you love jazz or you’re simply not sure, this group is a must hear!
