HIGHLIGHTS THIS MONTH Editor’s picks from this month’s listings:
Celebrating the Life of Eddie Harvey Jazz Services is proud to recommend a concert celebrating the life of Eddie Harvey and inaugurating Eddie Harvey Jazz Arranger of the Year Award 10th November 2013 @ Duke’s Hall, Royal Academy of Music, Marylebone Road, London NW1, 6.00pm The last composition of Eddie Harvey was an organ piece called Homage to Fats, finished in 2011. Eddie passed away in 2012 without getting to hear it live as it presented a challenge to any busy organist. Happily one of his former students, Chris Stanbury, mastered it so that Ed was able to hear a recording of it being played on a church organ. On 10 Nov 2013 you will be able to hear its debut as Chris plays it at a concert in celebration of Eddie’s long and productive life. Starting at 6.00 pm in Duke’s Hall, Royal Academy of Music, there will be a number of offerings of his music from players including Way out West, the co-operative in West London of which he was a founding member; Phil DeGreg Trio - Phil is coming over from the US especially; and NYJO
playing some of Eddie’s big band compositions and arrangements, the format which was perhaps closest to his heart. The concert will also include an offering from the English Chamber Choir who Eddie regarded as his in-laws after marrying one of their members. Eddie felt strongly that the jazz arranger’s contribution too often goes unrecognised. So, mindful of that, the evening will also see the launch of the Eddie Harvey Jazz Arranger of the Year Award, which will be worth £2,000 and open to all. Tickets are £10, phone 07766687418 or peggyhannington@gmail.com. We do hope you will come and share in our respect, affection and appreciation of a musician who gave so much to jazz.
