Garden Grooves: John Law Quartet

September 8 @ 5:30 pm - 9:30 pm

£13.00 - £17.00

Join us in our spectacular gardens for a summer’s evening of music and American-inspired food and drink. Soak up the stunning views across the Limpley Stoke valley while you enjoy the music and choose from an array of light supper and refreshing drinks options at the all-new American Garden Deli.

John Law Quartet

John Law (“One of the UK’s most imaginative and versatile jazz pianists” International Piano Magazine, 2014) presents Re-Creations: creative arrangements of some of the world’s most familiar music.

The idea is simple: we take some of the best-known tunes from all genres – jazz, pop, indie, rock, folk, classical sometimes – and re-create them, finding new arrangements and new angles to present them.

Sometimes just spontaneously re-inventing them. But no matter how free and inventive we get, no matter how complex and intricate the arrangements become, audiences everywhere always feel part of the creative process, because they know the tune and recognise it when it comes back. This is art music played, by highly skilled musicians, where audiences don’t feel excluded. They are an integral part of the evening and the whole experience.

Things you need to know…

Access to the grounds will be available from 5:30pm when doors open, music starts at 7pm. The event ends at 9:30pm and all visitors must exit by 10pm.

Standard tickets are £13.00 per person and provide a spot on the lawn. Please note there are no tables and chairs available on the lawn but you are welcome to bring your own chairs and picnic rugs.

Terrace tickets are £17.00 per person and provide a table reservation on the terrace. Please note tables and chairs are provided but must stay on the terrace.
