Featuring new arrangements of festive favourites penned by ‘brilliant young pianist’ Paul Edis and performed by some of the leading lights on the UK jazz scene including ‘velvet-voiced’ Jo Harrop.

After what has been an incredibly difficult two years for musicians in the jazz community, profits from ticket sales will go to the Hampstead Paris Church and Hampstead Jazz Club musicians’ support fund.

Paul Edis (MD)

‘A brilliant young pianist.’ The Guardian, Blurring the boundaries between Bill Evans, Brad Mehldau and Claude Debussy, recently released The Still Point Of The Turning World is an achingly beautiful, impressionistic record that wells up from places Wordsworth deemed `too deep for tears.’

Jo Harrop (Vocals)

Jo Harrop has a chocolate and cream croon that can melt the hardest of hearts. Described by the legendary Iggy Pop as “a very fine jazz singer”, she has just released The Heart Wants, her first album of original material.
