After a UK tour last year which included dates in London, Ireland and Paris, the Dean Stockdale Quartet returns to perform the music of legendary jazz pianist Oscar Peterson. The quartet features Tim Williams on Guitar, Gavin Barras on bass and Gaz Hughes on drums. The show focuses on special new arrangements of Oscar’s music, in particular his original compositions and music from his most popular albums, showcasing his infectious swing and piano virtuosity.
