Stan Tracey Centenary Celebration

Featuring Clark Tracey's Spectrum (Sponsored by Jazz In Britain Ltd)

In a year of ‘jazz centenaries’ (Miles, Coltrane) none is more significant to UK jazz than Stan Tracey ‘the Godfather of British jazz’ who would have turned 100 at the end of December.

To commemorate this, Marsden Jazz Festival has teamed up with Jazz In Britain and Stan’s son, Clark, to present this special concert which will feature the cream of British jazz talent from across the generations.

This gig also marks a new collaboration between Jazz In Britain and Clark’s own ReSteamed label, and the launch of an expanded 3CD re-issue of Stan’s 1982 album Spectrum: Tribute to Monk.

General tickets: £20; Age 17-29: £16; 16 and under: £1 (must be accompanied by an adult)

You can get a free ticket to the gig by selecting our Jazz Champion option and making a £80 voluntary donation to support the running costs of Marsden Jazz Festival. We will also be able to claim an additional £20 from the government through the Gift Aid scheme.

Marsden Jazz Festival is a registered charity which is run entirely by volunteers. Your support will help secure the festival's future. You must currently pay Income Tax or Capital Gains Tax to be eligible to make a Gift Aid donation.
