Jazz on a Summer's Day
Studio Theatre, dlr LexIcon
Free, but booking required via Eventbrite.ie
Inspired by the famous 'Jazz on a Summer's Day,' film of the 1958 Newport which weaves stellar performances by jazz greats like Anita O’Day, Louis Armstrong, and Thelonious Monk with images of water, yachts, sun hats, an attentive audience (eating ice-creams!) and quieter, more intimate rehearsal moments, Emilie Conway with Johnny Taylor(piano), and Barry Donohue (double bass) bring you their "Jazz on a Summer's Day!"
A programme of music that plays the lightness and brightness of summer, in the sparkle of some well known standards and in the twinkle of hidden gems: Tea for Two, Sweet Georgia Brown, The Summer Knows, Summer Samba and more!
