Violinist Fiona Pears and guitarist Connor Hartley-Hall share a love of Gypsy jazz. This music was originally made famous by legendary guitarist Django Reinhardt and French virtuoso violinist Stéphane Grappelli, when they formed the 'Quintette du Hot Club de France' back in the 1930s. Fiona and Connor will be performing a mix of fiery Gypsy jazz, heart-warming ballads along with some well-known classics.
This concert is part of The Great Hall Lunchtime Concert Series 2021, showcasing a remarkable line-up of renowned local, national and international artists performing in a beautiful heritage venue.
