Previous entry: Cobbles at night
Sibongile Khumalo, Jack DeJohnette, Billy Childs, Jerome Harris, Byron Wallen and Jason Yarde bow at the end of their performance at The London Jazz Festival last night. Before the break we were entertained by the talented artist in residence, Ayanna Witter-Johnson accompanied by Tom Crawley.
It was good to hear Sibongile sing jazz. She’s actually a trained opera singer but the last concert of hers that I attended was dominated by gospel sounds (my least favourite of the three). The musicians were top and really put life into her song “Little Girl”. Shortly after that they masterfully deconstructed a number by Abdullah Ebrahim.
By the comings and goings of the audience during the performances I suspect there were people moving between the different shows (according to the programme there were twenty shows that overlapped with ours). I found this a bit annoying - that people walked up and down the aisles and in and out the hall like it was a wine bar. Perhaps the group shouldn’t have chosen to perform under the name of a hotel chain.
