“Just You, Just Me”: A Concert of Duets, Celebrating a Century of Song
Multi award winning vocalist, Jacqui Dankworth, is joined by acclaimed American pianist-vocalist, Charlie Wood for a unique concert of duets celebrating a century of song.
Inspired by some of the great musical partnerships, such as Ray Charles & Betty Carter, Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington & Billy Strayhorn, George & Ira Gershwin and Roberta Flack & Donny Hathaway - the concert will feature numbers including: Alone Together, Autumn In New York, It Don't Mean a Thing, A Foggy Day, The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face and You've Got a Friend.
Jacqui Dankworth - Given her musical pedigree – daughter of Dame Cleo Laine and Sir John Dankworth - it’s no surprise that Jacqui Dankworth is regarded as one of the UK’s finest jazz vocalists.
Charlie Wood - is a singer and keyboardist who covers all musical styles. As a Memphis TN native, he grew up immersed in jazz, blues, and old-school R&B soul. He was soon touring Europe and the US with blues legend Albert King, before being lured off the road by a residency at the King's Palace Café on Beale Street (the heart of the Memphis music scene, and officially recognised as the “Home of the Blues” by an act of Congress).
'Jacqui Dankworth, one of the classiest acts in British jazz singing'
