In the Large Weston Room

4pm

John Etheridge Described
by Pat Metheny as “one of the best guitarists in the world,” John
Etheridge’s eclectic approach to music is characterised by key
associations with Stephane Grappelli and Soft Machine. Noted by The Observer
as “the best young violinist in jazz today” Christian Garrick has
revitalised jazz violin playing for the 21st century. Like Etheridge,
he has been touched by the iconic and vibrant Grapelli, whilst forging
his own individual style. Together they revisit gypsy jazz of the great
French tradition, in celebration of ‘Miró, Calder, Giacometti, Braque:
Aimé Maeght and His Artists’ exhibition.

This is a free event but
spaces are limited. Please arrive early and collect your free ticket
from the front desk to avoid disappointment.

Part of the London Jazz Festival in association with BBC Radio 3.
