Join us live on a YouTube live stream to listen to international jazz pianist, Tommy Scott, in conversation with jazz innovator, Alex Steele. Alex will be interviewing Tommy about his unique perspectives on jazz, and the event will be a blend of conversation, music, and questions and answers with a global audience.
This event will celebrate International Jazz Day, designated by UNESCO (the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation), which is led by legendary jazz pianist and UNESCO Ambassador, Herbie Hancock.
International Jazz Day is about celebrating and learning about jazz and its roots, future and impact; it seeks to raise awareness of the need for intercultural dialogue and mutual understanding; and to reinforce international co-operation and communication. It’s about recognising jazz as a medium to promote peace, dialogue among cultures, diversity, respect for human rights and human dignity, eradicating discrimination, promoting freedom of expression, fostering gender equality, and reinforcing the role of youth in enacting social change.
Whilst we face a global pandemic and lockdown throughout the planet, we would like to reach out to the world, and inspire you to come together and join us as we explore through music and conversation, the beauty of what jazz represents, artistically, culturally and socially.
This will be a free livestreaming event on YouTube and we would love to welcome as many of you as possible from around the world. Participants will be able to interact with Tommy and Alex throughout the live session using LiveChat on screen.
We will take you on a journey through the jazz brain of Tommy Scott. We will explore what it means to be a jazz musician; we will look at how the music has evolved and what it represents; and we will look at how the behaviours and perspectives of ‘the jazz brain’ can be of value to all of us, as we navigate the joys and challenges of everyday life. Alex Steele will host the event, and take us with him on a journey, as we dig deeply into the curious and wonderful brain of brilliant jazz pianist, Tommy Scott!
