| Performance Notes | Spend a lazy weekend listening to music by exceptional musicians from the London jazz scene and renowned world music artists at a delicious Live Music Brunch.
Live Music Brunch takes place in Verdi Italian Kitchen at the Royal Albert Hall, which offers casual dining and great music within one of Londons most iconic settings. Your ticket includes a welcome drink, main course and dessert, served with tea or coffee, all accompanied by great live music.
Over the past couple of years the The Silver Ghosts have performed at high profile venues like Ronnie Scott's bar, The 100 Club, and The Savoy as well as having the fortuity to have recorded a session for the BBC at the beautiful Art Deco premises at Bush House, just before the latter moved to their new location.
Remaining faithful to the smart sartorial spirit of the period of the music, the musicians observe that the look is an important part of the ensemble's performance. In keeping with the era of song and dance, some of the band also know a few partner dance moves like the Charleston and the Lindy Hop. Consequently, when performing to a dance floor, they are liable to swing out as part of their act.
Mark Aguera, the bandleader and trumpet player, was inspired by the energy and style of several swing dance club nights around town where the DJs play nothing but original 78s on period equipment while patrons express their passion for swing jazz sometimes just through their period garb but mostly on the dance floor with classically energetic partner dances. |
