Welcome to the Mill Hill
Music Festival Website
|
|
We are please to present our Midsummer Jazz Festival
this year. The Festival will take place from Wednesday 25th
June to Sunday 29th June.
|
In addition to the recent sad news about our patron Humphrey Lyttelton's passing. We are
sorry to report that Campbell Burnap died suddenly on the 30th May. Our deepest sympathies go out to Campbell's family.
We still plan to continue with the event on Friday 27 June. The evening will celebrate the music Campbell loved, led by his old friend and Mill Hill favourite, Ron Drake. Campbell's All Star group is comprised of Ron Drake, clarinet & tenor sax; Andy Dickens, trumpet & vocals; Dave Hewett, trombone & baritone horn; Richard Busiakiewicz, piano; Peter Morgan, bass and Rod Brown, drums. All were good friends of Campbell's, and want to celebrate his life and music in the best possible way - playing tunes that he loved, and entertaining one of his favourite audiences in the way he would have liked.
If you have any questions please get in touch either by email at enquiries@millhillmusicfest.co.uk or you can contact Daniel on 020 8420 6594.

Summertime means different things to different people. In
Mill Hill, to many people it means great live music. Since
the mid 1990s the Mill Hill Music Festival has provided North
West London with a variety of musical genres from a host of
talent. This year’s Midsummer Jazz Festival will continue
the tradition of bringing live music to local music lovers
- by giving them the chance to enjoy world class artists locally.
Our five day programme sees some of the finest musicians in
the UK today, with a mixture of some of the best-known names
in British jazz, along with some of the brightest young talent.
We are especially pleased to welcome back Mill Hill’s
special friend, Campbell Burnap.
The Mill Hill Jazz Club kicks off the Festival by playing
host to the winner of the BBC Jazz Award for Best of Jazz
in 2006, the splendid Anita Wardell. We are also very honoured
to have Sir John Dankworth bring his quintet on Thursday,
while Saturday brings the fantastic sound of Buddy Rich et
al to Mill Hill in the form of The Steve Taylor Big Band.
