​

A programme of legendary classics reinvented with a jazz twist. The Art Deco trio combine the materials and textures of classical repertoire with the rhythms and harmonies of jazz. This concert features new versions of familiar works by musical heroes, both classical (Wagner, Elgar, Handel and friends) and popular (Gershwin). Dazzling and virtuosic arrangements are guaranteed to delight and entertain, including re-workings of The Ride of the Valkyries, The Flight of the Bumblebee, Land of Hope and Glory and Für Elise. The trio is made up of three friends and colleagues who have performed together in many of the UK's top venues, and individually with many leading orchestras and conductors.

Programme includes:

after WAGNER Valerie Takes a Ride

after RIMSKY-KORSAKOV The Bite of the Flumblebee

after ELGAR Saturday in the Park with Elgar

after BEETHOVEN Elise's Blues

after HANDEL Arrival Revival

...and more.
