A jazz outfit renowned for its vintage approach to early 20th-century American music is scheduled to appear in a rural Hertfordshire community this month.
The ensemble, which specialises in interpreting compositions from the 1920s New Orleans tradition, will take to the stage on Friday 11 September.
Concert entry costs £20, with purchases possible through online booking services or at a music retailer located in the Kent town of Tunbridge Wells.
The group’s musical director is a clarinettist who has earned considerable recognition from professional reviewers and listeners for his contributions to the band’s distinctive sound.
The collective has undertaken numerous tours throughout Britain and further afield.
Its catalogue draws upon works by established figures from early jazz history alongside pieces from the period that have fallen into relative obscurity.
Among the composers represented in its performances are influential musicians who shaped the genre during its formative decades.
The ensemble emerged in 2013 through collaboration between the clarinettist and an American pianist.
The partnership expanded over subsequent years to include additional instrumentalists, with a guitarist and bassist now forming part of the regular lineup.
More recently, a new keyboard player joined the group following the American collaborator’s return to the United States.
