A taster of our most popular words & music production
Reviews
IconoClassics with Anthony Hewitt, piano
“he wrought myriad sounds and colours from the modest instrument”
“For the audience, the small size of the Jazz Room means one gets up and close and personal with music and performer in a way which is never possible in a larger or more formal venue. Such closeness creates a very special sense of communication and shared experience between audience and performer, and throughout the concert there was a very palpable sense of people listening really intently – a great compliment to the music and the pianist.”
Classic Gershwin
“Gershwin is brought to life with the delightful interweaving of words and music”
Audience reactions to Classic Gershwin

“That was wonderful!”
Flamenco! with Betty Cid & friends (November 2017)
“the best thing I’ve ever seen in the Jazz Room!”
Rowan Hudson Trio at The Jazz Room (8 August 2017)
Rowan’s piano playing is sensitively paced, supple and elegant. His dynamic palette is varied and colourful: he can do the gentlest whispered pianissimos and muscular fortes without ever losing clarity or quality of tone, and he can make piano sounds bend and waver, seemingly effortlessly.
Sweet Harmony
The evening was a feast for the senses
Divine Fire
The opening piece, the fleeting Prelude in A, Op 28 No. 7, set the tone for the evening – played with an ethereal delicacy, the last note was no more than a whisper……an absorbing, moving and beautifully presented evening of words and music
