A Swinging Christmas
Production Company: Diss Jazz Club
Venue: The Corn Hall
The return of the joyous, jazzy A Swinging Christmas show with the Chris Ingham Quintet featuring Joanna Eden (aka Jazz At The Movies).
Rated as “sublime seasonal jazz” by BBC Radio Suffolk’s Stephen Foster, this show is the perfect way to begin the festivities.
An annual sell-out at Ronnie Scott’s and festive concerts all over the UK, the show’s ever-evolving song selection delivers a delightful, stocking-full of 20th century holiday classics and curiosities, a unique blend of irreverence, poignancy and joy.
Featuring pianist/MC Chris Ingham (host of the Corn Hall's Jazz Club), acclaimed chanteuse Joanna Eden (longtime teacher/mentor to pop superstar Sam Smith), saxophonist / clarinettist Mark Crooks (world-class woodwind star of the renowned John Wilson Orchestra), bassist Malcolm Creese (nine years with John Dankworth and Cleo Laine) and drummer George Double (Suffolk-based drum hero, crooner and matinee idol).
