are looking forward to next week’s gig with some excitement – French horn
maestro Jim Rattigan will be bringing his star-studded 12-piece ensemble Pavillon
to grace our stage!

the world both as a jazz soloist and as a band member of various groups. These
include the Michael Brecker Quindectet, the Charlie Haden / Carla Bley
Liberation Music Orchestra, the McCoy Tyner Big Band, Django Bates’ Delightful
Precipice, the Creative Jazz Orchestra with Kenny Wheeler, Brad Mehldau with
the Britten Sinfonia, the Guy Barker Big Band and the Simon Purcell Octet. Jim

Steve Swallow and Bill Frizzell, Julian Arguelles Ensemble, Mark lockheart’s
Scratch Band and the London Sinfonietta.
