We play jazz recordings, mainly videos, on the second Wednesday of each month from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm in the STEAM ROOM of Towcester Mill Brewery located in Chantry Lane, Towcester, NN12 6AD. The room is on the first floor via some easy stairs but there is a passenger lift if required.
All types of jazz and near jazz are played including: Ragtime, Blues, New Orleans, Chicago, Swing, Big Band, Be-Bop, Cool, Hard Bop, Avant Garde, etc. as well as current and uncategorisable artists.
The meeting format consists of a video and audio presentations, usually by a group member, on topics such as Jazz as an Art Form, Gerry Mulligan, Cannonball Adderley, Sidney Bechet, Latin Jazz, South African Jazz, Pee Wee Russell, & Blue Note Records.
The group started sessions in January 2014
Anyone who is interested in Jazz is welcome to join us at these sessions but membership of the Towcester U3A is essential.
