JAZZ: Ayanna Witter-Johnson, or just Ayanna, is a young cellist and singer who doesn’t fit into any particular mould but makes fantastic, soulful music. She’s perhaps described as a British Esperanza Spalding, the Grammy Award-winning bassist and vocalist, and you can see if that comparison stands up at her gig at The Forge tomorrow night.
WORLD: Amjad Ali Khan is a master of the sarod, an Indian stringed instrument. A legend of Indian classical music, Khan has a major residency starting at the Wigmore Hall on Friday.
ART/EXHIBITIONS: From Thursday, you can see Louise Bourgeois: The Return of the Repressed at the Freud Museum: original documents from the artist’s psychoanalytic writings on display alongside drawings and sculptures. Thursday is also the opening day for Titanic Remembered at the Royal Museums Greenwich, and the Portrait of London exhibition at the Wandsworth Museum.
From Friday, Marilyn opens at the Getty Images Gallery near Oxford Street. Or head to any of the White Cube Galleries across London, and you can see Gilbert & George’s latest show, calledLondon Pictures, featuring the duo and an array of newspaper headlines.
Finally, on Saturday, Johan Zoffany RA: Society Observed opens at the Royal Academy of Arts.
