HUSBAND and wife musical duo Jacqui Dankworth and Charlie Wood will be celebrating some of the great musical partnerships of the 20th century, featuring classic compositions and landmark recordings by legendary duos like Ray Charles and Betty Carter, Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn, George and Ira Gershwin, Roberta Flack and Donny Hathaway, James Taylor and Carole King, and many more.
British jazz diva Jacqui Dankworth, daughter of the late Cleo Lane and John Dankworth, and American vocalist/pianist Charlie Wood bring two sublime voices joined in harmony to sing the songs of great composers. Jacqui’s unique musical palette draws on jazz, folk, soul, classical, blues, and numerous other influences and combines with Charlie, who is the 136th person to receive a Brass Note on Beale Street, the Memphis equivalent of a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Jacqui Dankworth and Charlie Wood will be at The Courtyard on Friday, January 29 at 7.30pm. To book, call the box office on 01432 340555 or visit courtyard.org.uk
