Nigel Kennedy


Monday 25th - Friday 29th March
World-famous virtuoso Nigel Kennedy returns to Ronnie Scott’s next week for 5 nights of fantastic music, dedicated to Polish jazz musician and composer Krsysztof Komeda. As a jazz musician, Komeda was one of the founding fathers of European jazz in the 1960s and was a huge influence on creating an original jazz style in Poland, often described as the Polish school of jazz today. Komeda's seminal album Astigmatic is widely regarded as one of the most important European Jazz albums and marked a shift to a distinctly European sound in jazz. You’ve also probably heard Komeda’s work in the films of Roman Polanski such as Rosemary’s Baby and Knife in the Water. The composer’s iconic scores have gone down in cinematic history as some of the greatest ever composed.
