Event details: Cleo Laine and John Dankworth are celebrating a most distinguished musical partnership that started when Cleo auditioned for John's band in Soho in the early 1950s. Cleo is acclaimed worldwide for her fascinating voice with its subtlety of colour and range, while John is famed as instrumentalist, composer and conductor. They have enjoyed particular success in the United States working with many giants of the jazz world and where John became musical director, among others, for Nat King Cole, Ella Fitzgerald and Oscar Peterson.

Their 80th birthday tribute concert with the London Symphony Orchestra at the Barbican in February was a sell-out and we expect their visit to Thaxted, with John's quintet, to be received with equal enthusiasm!
