A Night of Jazz with Mike Hatchard & Friends: Stéphane Grappelli meets Dudley Moore

Neil Bullock/ drums Nils Solberg/ guitar Terry Pack/ Bass Mike Hatchard/ violin/ piano

This show was originally commissioned by the Concert Artists Association, and received three standing ovations on its launch in Covent Garden in 2022. If audience reaction is a way of judging a show then it's worth noting it hasn't faltered since.

Dudley Moore and Stephane Grappelli might seem an odd combination but both combined fine music making with extreme joie de vivre. Furthermore, both of these maverick performers were utterly unique in their contribution to the jazz genre - Grappelli because he acquired fame on an instrument barely associated with jazz and Moore because he is virtually the only jazz pianist of note to have had a career in films and comedy.
