Jazz At The Movies - A Swinging Christmas

Sold out annually at Ronnie Scott’s in 2012-2019 and regularly featured at Pizza Express Jazz Club in Soho, and in many venues across England’s South East, these two concerts at Piano Smithfield, Jazz At The Movies: A Swinging Christmas! are the perfect way to start your week and swing into the holidays.

These concerts are fronted by acclaimed singer Joanna Eden (“The UK’s answer to Norah Jones and Diana Krall”- Time Out) following on from her earlier concert at Piano Smithfield celebrating the 50th anniversary of the seminal album “Blue” by Joni Mitchell.

Supporting her are the groovy sounds of another Piano Smithfield performer, Chris Ingham with his Quartet

Jazz At The Movies: A Swinging Christmas! gathers jazzy festive favourites as made famous by Ella, Eartha, Frank, Doris, Dean, Bing and a whole gang of cool celluloid cats and hip Hollywood chicks.

Joining Joanna’s vocals and Chris’ piano skills are

Mark Crooks – saxophones and clarinet

Joe Pettitt – double bass

George Double – drums.

Sit forward, be entertained and enjoy this taste of A Swinging Christmas

An enchanting show rich with anecdote, sophistication and swing, it was described by one audience member as “pure joy”.
