About

An evening of Parisian-flavoured music and Christmas jazz, with quartet Swing from Paris.

Swing from Paris are an all-string jazz quartet of violin, guitars and double bass, inspired by the music from the cafés and cabarets of Montmartre to Artie Shaw, Django Reinhardt, Stéphane Grappelli and the master of tango Astor Piazzolla.

You'll also hear some cosy classic Christmas jazz numbers, arranged specially for this festive special to get you in the holiday spirit!

With a tight and virtuosic ensemble sound, they bring a distinctive Parisian flair to vintage jazz and stylish swing, with appearances ranging from BBC TV and radio to the French Embassy at Kensington Palace.
