Event information

We are proud to present award-winning Polish jazz pianist & composer, Kuba Stankiewicz in his London debut playing music from his highly acclaimed CD – The Music of Henry Wars – 2017. This will be a captivating and mesmerising evening of superb jazz dedicated to this brilliant Polish / Jewish composer and Kuba will be backed by a stellar trio led by Kelvin Christiane with Manuel Alvarez and Asaf Sirkis. NOT TO BE MISSED!

For a long time now, Kuba Stankiewicz has been among the very best of the Polish pianists, proof of which came when he was nominated for an annual Society of the Phonographic Industry award known as „Frederyki 2013” in the category of best jazz album. The album that earned Kuba this distinction was his 2012 CD entitled „Spaces,” which was also nominated for a „Prize of Wroclaw Music Award”.

Kuba’s pianism is marked by distinctively American roots. However, it leans more towards the romantically lyrical than the dynamically extreme. At any rate, it is genuine, hard-swinging jazz.

Doors open at 7.30pm and there is a mixture of seating and standing room. If you would like a seat then we recommend you arrive early or ring the club manager for a reservation.
