It’s the launch the Dankworth Prize for Jazz Composition, featuring Trinity College of Music Jazz Ensemble.

Tim Garland and Frank Griffith are the judges for two composition prizes, which will be heard, plus charts from Sir John Dankworth.

Nigel and Bernard are pulling strands of the jazz community together in a very effective and positive way. More power to their pigtail and elbow respectively!!

Here’s a Dankworth moment from 1978, the Tomorrow’s World theme, ending with a low A baritone honk!
