In July 1992 acclaimed jazz composer Carla Bley brought her new composition to Glasgow International Jazz Festival. Carla Bley’s radical new piece ‘Birds of Paradise’ was specially composed for Glasgow, scoring the violin with the big band. This is her first rehearsal, shown with kind permission of Skyline Productions.
Due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, the 34th Glasgow Jazz Festival will be held virtually from Wednesday 17 until Sunday 21 June 2020. Over the 5 nights that the festival was scheduled to take place, we will support our homegrown Scottish jazz talent by streaming exclusive live performances and screenings.
All of these fantastic artists can be viewed from the comfort of your home via the MyPlayer.uk streaming service. Alongside this, additional music from the vibrant Scottish jazz scene can be enjoyed at your leisure over the 5 festival days.
The Virtual Festival will be free to view, however if you would like to donate to support Glasgow Jazz Festival's Community & Education Fund you can do so via Paypal for Charity.
