enjoy some jazz with this dynamic duo

An evening of jazz music was staged at Youlgrave Village Hall on October 3
Ian Millar and Dominic Spencer are a saxophone and piano jazz duo, who have been playing together for a number of years playing melodic improvisations on jazz standards and originals compositions.

Based in Edinburgh, the duo has regularly and extensively toured Scotland. They have embarked on many rural tours, often bringing jazz for the first time to remote communities, performing in intimate settings.

The beautiful Scottish scenery that they have seen on their travels has inspired the writing of many pieces of music by Ian.

The exciting new endeavour Jazz in the Village will take them even further up and down the country playing in villages all over Britain.

Dominic said: “We have been very successful at transforming the village halls into an intimate cabaret style jazz club setting with low lighting and candles on the tables. We now have very many fond memories of wonderful evenings in halls around the country where the reception we have received and audience comments have been fantastic.”
