Advance
notice that our annual concert at Gateshead's Caedmon Hall is on Saturday 29
February at 7.30 pm, once again featuring Keith Nichols on piano, Nick
Ward on drums, Caroline on vocals and presented by Steve Andrews (reeds).
Tyneside’s premier exponents of ragtime, hot dance music and classic
jazz return to the Caedmon Hall for their annual concert, assisted by Mr Keith
Nichols, master of ragtime and stride piano styles. Over the past 20 years, New
Century Ragtime Orchestra has developed a reputation for musical authenticity
and presentational mayhem from larger-than-life reed man and local hero, Steve
Andrews. If you like ragtime, 1920s jazz and 1930s swing, this is a night not
to miss!
The
Caedmon Hall (within Gateshead Central Library) has free parking facilities,
disabled access and a bar. The address is Prince Consort Road, Gateshead NE8
4LN.
Tickets
(£15) are best ordered in advance from the band leader, Dave Kerr, on 0191
281 4011 or ragtimedavekerr@aol.com. They can be
collected and paid for on the door.
We hope
you can join us for another musical roller-coaster through the Jazz Age, from
ragtime through hot dance to early swing - see you there!
Phil
