SOUTHWOLD ARTS FESTIVAL ~ Courtney Pine presents Song The Ballad Book featuring special guest Zoe Rahman

BOOKING COMMENCES ON 3rd APRIL

In the 80’s he was one of the first black British jazz artists to make a serious mark on the jazz scene when his first album charted and some 20 plus years on (now with an OBE and CBE for services to music) Courtney Pine continues to break new ground with a string of highly acclaimed recordings and numerous prestigious Industry awards. He played at UNESCO’S globally televised concert in Osaka to celebrate International Jazz Day and his name regularly appears on the list of Most Influential Black Britons.

He sells out shows across the UK, US and Canada and plays mainstage performances everywhere from Bestival, to Love Supreme to The London Jazz Festival.

For this set from his 16th studio album Song The Ballad Book, he has stripped everything right back for some of the most intimate shows of his long and celebrated career as he takes to the stage playing bass clarinet accompanied only by a Pianist. Having recorded the album with acclaimed pianist Zoe Rahman he continues to tour the show with her.
