Jean Darke RIPJanuary 28, 1933 – March 4, 2021 Founder of Jazz at St Giles, our lovely friend and Musical Inspiration, Jean Darke, passed from us on March 4 2021 after a short illness. Our Autumn 2021 Series 9 will celebrate Jean’s life as a musician, and especially her love of jazz which she shared so generously with us all through creating our JASG series. |
We are so pleased to be able to have Jacqui Dankworth, nominated by the late Jean Darke, as our series patron. Jacqui is the UK’s leading jazz singer, and we remember with great pleasure the evenings when she has entertained us so wonderfully as part of the ‘Butterfly’s Wing Quartet and also alongside singer, songwriter and keyboardist, Charlie Wood.
