The Derek Paravicini Quartet

Friday, 9th April 2027 - 6:30pm


Following their sensational debut last year, we are delighted to welcome back the Derek Paravicini Quartet with resident artist Derek Paravicini. 

The Derek Paravicini Quartet is a must-hear jazz group, comprising Hannah Davey on vocals, Ben Holder on violin, and Ollie Howell on drums with Derek at the piano.  These four stunningly talented musicians combine to create a unique sound, portraying a kaleidoscope of emotions – a musical chameleon with breath-taking new takes on classic songs and jazz standards, and a repertoire from ragtime to Radiohead, from Irving Berlin to the Beatles, from Cole Porter to Coldplay.  As anyone who has seen them before will know, no two concerts are the same!  Expect classics, audience requests, ballads and toe-tapping swing.  Derek’s residency is supported by Arts Council England.


This performance lasts approximately 2 hours, including an interval.


Generously sponsored by Marian and Gordon Pell.
