SLJO’s 25th anniversary concert, in support of Cure Parkinson’s
3 months ago
Join us for a special evening to celebrate the South London Jazz Orchestra’s 25th anniversary – raising funds for the wonderful charity, Cure Parkinson’s.
We’ll bring you two hours of glorious big band jazz and swing – strap yourself in for everything from Count Basie to Glenn Miller, Sammy Nestico to Freddie Hubbard. We work hard to keep our set list fresh and to reflect the often hidden diversity of swing and jazz composition and arranging. So listen out for the occasional diversion further afield, including Latin and Funk, and maybe even some more surprising choices…
South London Jazz Orchestra (SLJO) is a diverse group of talented musicians – a big band with the emphasis on big! Our aim is to share our love of jazz around London and beyond, help raise money for charity, and have as much fun as possible while doing so.
In tribute to and loving memory of SLJO’s co-founder, Bob Bridges, all profits from the gig will be donated to Cure Parkinson’s in support of their vital work. Cure Parkinson’s is working with urgency to find new treatments to slow, stop and reverse Parkinson’s.
