“Reflections of Brubeck” with Mitch Perrins’ Atlantic Quintet.

Mitch Perrins gave us a very interesting evening comprising a mixture of Dave Brubeck numbers interspersed with Mitch’s own compositions influenced by his own experiences playing in New York and beyond.  Check out his web page  http://mitchperrins.com/

• Mitch Perrins – Drums and Leader
• Chris Bowden – Alto Sax
• David Austin Grey – Keyboard
• Mike Green – Bass
• Dave Boraston – Trumpet

Here a little sample of some of the evening’s tunes. A bit of Brubeck, a bit of Mitch’s music, and some more Brubeck, recorded from the table:

Swing from Paris brought once again the sounds of a chic Parisian café and the French jazz of Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelli. A very well attended event, part of the vast menu of functions and attractions as part of this year’s Kenilworth Festival.

Here’s a couple of snippets recorded from my table:

Minor Swing:

Savoy Stomp:
