Simon Tedeschi and George Washingmachine with a seven-piece band

Imagine the fusion of a classical pianist and a jazz violinist-vocalist …

The result? An enchanting blend of rhythm, exciting and delightful surprises! Prepare to be captivated as award-winning pianist Simon Tedeschi and acclaimed jazz virtuoso George Washingmachine grace the Southern Highlands once again.

This time, they bring along a carefully selected seven-piece jazz ensemble. Their performance promises swinging melodies and impromptu creations, breathing life into timeless jazz favourites from Benny Goodman, Duke Ellington, with even a touch of Gershwin magic. Joining Simon and George is an all-star line-up which includes Ben Lerner (Alto Saxophone), Andrew Robertson (Tenor Saxophone), Ray Cassar (Trumpet), Rhys Moore (Trombone), Brendan Clarke (Double Bass), Tim Geldens (Drums) and special guest Clare O’Meara (Violin/Vocals).

Tickets are $55.00 for adults ($45.00 for SH Jazz members) and $35.00 for students/children. Both reserved and unreserved seating (up the front) are available.

This is the first of two events as part of the Southern Highlands Jazz Spectacular – look out for details on The Dan Barnett Big Band with special guest Monica Trapaga, on Sunday afternoon the 24th also at the Bowral Memorial Hall.
