Cheltenham born pianist Peter Gill will explore in a 45 minute musical presentation some of the sounds of the jazz age of the 1920s and 1930 which would have been the soundscape for both Louise Dyer (the Australian-born patron of the Arts featured in our 2024 exhibition) in Paris and Gustav Holst in England.
Expect sample renditions of such iconic tunes as Ain’t Misbehavin’, Don’t Get Around Much Anymore, Sweet Georgia Brown, Mack the Knife and Georgia on my Mind. Songs which have survived the passage of time and are as fresh today as they were when first heard.
The admission price includes a welcoming drink (alcoholic or non) in the Victorian Kitchen.
This is a repeat performance because the first time it sold out quickly and the audience loved it.
All proceeds will go towards the conservation and running of the Holst Victorian House. If you can’t make the event but would like to support the museum, you can donate here.
