Presented by the Norden Farm Jazz Club. Adam Glasser and Friends is at Norden Farm Centre for the Arts on Friday 20 June at 8pm. Tickets are £17.50.
South African harmonica player, pianist and educator Adam Glasser has an international reputation as an exponent of township jazz on the chromatic harmonica and piano.
Adam is one of the UK’s top session harmonica players. He has performed with Sting, Eurythmics, Incognito, Joe Zawinul and recorded for many film composers from Debbie Wiseman to Howard Shore. He has performed in live orchestral concerts and theatre productions, including Midsummer Night’s Dream (Shakespeare’s Globe).
He grew up influenced by his father’s involvement as musical director of the South African musical productions King Kong and Mr Paljas. He later graduated with a BA (Hons) in European Literature from Warwick University and moved to Paris to study jazz piano. By the mid eighties, Adam was working regularly with legendary alto players and played several festivals in Europe.
He has stepped in for Stevie Wonder twice – on live television with Sting and Eurythmics. He also guested with the BBC Concert Orchestra at the Royal Albert Hall.
This gig focuses on his love of the Great American songbook as well as some South African songs. It will be a special evening.
Tickets are £17.50
