Join Courtney Pine CBE for a celebration and a reflection of his career at the forefront of UK jazz music with a special live show where the ground-breaking saxophonist and multi-instrumentalist will perform highlights from his catalogue plus some unreleased gems.
No musician embodies the dramatic transformation of the British jazz scene over the past four decades than Courtney Pine CBE. Celebrating four decades at the forefront of British jazz, the groundbreaking saxophonist and multi-instrumentalist, returns to the stage with Out of the Ghetto: A Modern Day Jazz Story — a powerful retrospective tour which is both a celebration and a reflection which honours the resilience, creativity, and community that shaped Pine’s journey from London streets to international stages. Expect a night of deep grooves, soaring saxophone, and the unmistakable energy of an artist who continues to push jazz forward while staying true to his roots.
This special live show brings together key moments from Pine’s remarkable catalogue, alongside previously unreleased material reimagined with the fire and freedom that have made his performances legendary.
