Olney Jazz Club Presents The Richard Exall Quartet…

August 23, 2018 By Peter Butler Leave a Comment

8.00pm Tuesday 4th September

Jazz Samba….the iconic album by tenor saxophonist Stan Getz and guitarist Charlie Byrd became a world-wide sensation in 1962.

The music was inspired by the new sound of the bossa nova, which Charlie Byrd had only recently discovered whilst on a tour of Brazil in 1961.The Richard Exall Quartet brings together some of the UK’s finest exponents of the genre to bring the sounds of Stan Getz and Charlie Byrd back to life.

The varied and exciting program also consists of favourites from GETZ AU GO GO and THE COOL SOUND OF STAN GETZ, making the most of Stan Getz’s reputation for the beautiful ballads and rip-roaring swing standards for which he was famous.

HELP US KEEP JAZZ LIVE AND ALIVE!

Popular belief is that Jazz has had its day. Not so! There are plenty of great bands on the jazz circuits - playing at Concerts, Clubs, Festivals. People say the musicians and fans are past their sell by dates and don’t attract younger audiences. Again, not so! There is a Jazz Revival! Numerous younger bands with growing numbers of enthusiastic young fans are making their mark.

Jazz&Jazz is dedicated to keeping jazz LIVE AND ALIVE. We value exchanges of views on all things jazz. You can make your comments by using the “Speak Your Mind” option below each post.

But as Jazz&Jazz coverage increases incrementally in quality as well as quantity so do costs - travel, photography, videos, subscriptions, booking and ticket prices.

CONTRIBUTIONS to help cover costs would therefore be greatly appreciated. Jazz&Jazz also features JAZZ ART, sales of which help finance expenses.

“Dear Peter, You have embarked on a lonely road. There have been few people painting New Orleans musicians over the years. There was one guy named Frank Caunce … in the 1965 - 72 period who was very good but not as organised as you. So keep doing what you are doing.”
Barry Martyn, New Orleans
