Brought together by their passion for jazz icons Django Reinhardt and Billie Holiday, this performance will weave together the life story of these two seminal artists that were musical contemporaries and the music and songs that connected them.
The mesmerising vocals of Irene Serra combined with the sizzling Gypsy Jazz influenced La Bouche Manouche will present a programme of music which pays homage to both iconic musicians with repertoire chosen from their most famous recordings.
The performance will include much-loved tunes including Nuages, Fine And Mellows, Les Yeux Noir and Jeepers Creepers.
