Courtney Pine: House of Legends

Admission Standard: £30.00, Concs: £24.00. Booking fee applies
Start Time 19:30
End Time 22:00

In this special concert presented in partnership with BlackFest, Courtney Pine returns to The Tung Auditorium in his 60th birthday year.

This award-winning show, House of Legends, celebrates the influence and contributions to the UK from the many varied people of the Caribbean and the re-release of his ground breaking debut album Journey To The Urge Within.

No musician more embodies the dramatic transformation in the British jazz scene over the past thirty years than saxophonist Courtney Pine. The ground breaking, multi-instrumentalist has led a generation of exciting and innovative players who have broadened their styles to take jazz out to a wider audience.

Deeply steeped in the traditions of the Caribbean, this very personal project sees Courtney on top form, bringing together musicians from Africa, the Caribbean and Europe for vibrant exchanges that tell tales of life from a truly multi-cultural viewpoint. Expect an exhilarating mix of Merengue, Ska, Mento and Calypso as played through the lens (saxophone) of a UK born artist with strong, proud Afro-Caribbean roots.
