I haven’t been to jazz gigs for a while, but I recently went to two.

First, I caught a concert by pianists John Taylor and Gwilym Simcock at the Queens Hall. (The lack of an apostrophe pains me, but that is how they write it.)

The gig started with Taylor playing a solo set. Looking just like a slightly jazzier Bernard Cribbins, he sat at the piano and played. It was lovely music – thoughtful and peaceful, slightly meandering – rather like Satie. He played three or four numbers before he was joined by Simcock.


Cribbins - Taylor
(neither picture is mine!)
