JLT play the music of Michel Camilo

The John Lake Trio Play the 

Music of Michel Camilo

Sunday 14 October 2018 at 3.00pm

Don't miss this new venture for the trio playing the incredible latin jazz music of one of the giants of contemporary jazz.

Michel Camilo

Michel Camilo is a legend in his own lifetime as a master of latin jazz piano and his compositions and re-styling of latin jazz standards are now classics of the style.

This concert will be an ambitious exploration of some of Camilo’s earlier compositions which established him as an international artist including “And Sammy Walked In”, “Tropical Jam” and “One More Once”, combined with some of his interpretations of classic latin pieces such as “Poinciana”, Chick Corea’s “Armanda's Rumba” and Kenny Dorham's "Blue Bossa"

The set will provide a contrast of lively latin rhythms with highly melodic and sentimental ballads such as “Thinking of You”. It will be a great opportunity to showcase the church’s new Venables baby grand piano played by John Lake with Simon Cambers on drums and Matt Casterton on bass.

This one hour concert is in aid of the church restoration fund and is with free admission, but it is hoped that you will give generously to help maintain this historically important and vital part of the village community of Alfriston.

The church has a recently purchased Venables baby grand piano and this is a great opportunity for John Lake to showcase it with Matt Casterton on bass and Simon Cambers on drums.
