Jazz can mean different music to different people.
It stretches from early New Orleans, Ragtime, & Blues, through to Swing & then on to Modern and beyond.
This video clip is local jazz musician Mike Denham playing at the Sturminster-Newton Boogie Woogie Festival 2017
The organisers of this year’s Cheltenham Jazz Festival have confirmed it will be a free-to-view livestreamed online event running throughout the May Bank Holiday weekend of Saturday 1 and Sunday 2 May on the festival’s YouTube and Facebook pages. However, with social distancing restrictions set to be lifted by 21 June, plans are also underway for a series of ticketed in-person live gigs over three nights in July at Cheltenham Town Hall, with dates to be announced soon with government guidance permitting.
No matter what your taste is , do come along, you will be made very welcome.
