The Latin Jam

Members of the two Latin bands, Los Gatos and the Brazilian Samba Express share the stage for the finale. They perform two or three well known Latin Jazz numbers whilst improvising on them. The face-off between the percussionists from Cuba, Brazil and Panama enthral audiences who have never heard the likes of this confrontation! Trumpets and saxophones from other bands join in!

The Blues Jam

Members of the Clifford Brown band, MND FLO and Ari Roland’s Quartet combine to play this rousing finale. Again, two or three jazz classic tunes will be on display, but with a blues touch. Expect to hear All Blues, Bag’s Groove at this set.

Please note: The videos will be available for a week post the streaming.
