"Dankworth: A Musical Legacy in London and Beyond" Step back in time to the vibrant jazz scene of 1970s Soho, London. Johnny Dankworth takes center stage at Ronnie Scotts, captivating audiences with his mesmerizing saxophone skills. The atmosphere is electric as the crowd sways to the rhythm of his music, transported to a world where melodies speak louder than words. In 1975, Cleo Laine graces the stage at Dorchester, London. Her soulful voice fills every corner of the room, leaving listeners spellbound by her talent and charisma. Brian O Connor's artistry captures this moment perfectly, immortalizing Cleo's performance for generations to come. Fast forward to 1995 at Brecon Jazz Festival - a celebration of jazz that brings together artists from all over the world. Cleo Laine once again steals hearts with her breathtaking performance while Brian Foskett expertly captures her essence through his lens. The legacy continues as John Dankworth takes Norwich by storm in July 2007. His passion for music shines through every note he plays, leaving no doubt about why he is considered one of Britain's greatest jazz musicians. Brian Foskett skillfully documents this unforgettable night, preserving it forever. Alec Dankworth joins his father on stage at Brecon Jazz Festival in Wales during that same year - a testament to their musical bond and shared love for creating beautiful harmonies together. Brian Foskett masterfully captures their connection through his lens. Traveling back further in time to West Wickham in 1964, we witness John Dankworth alongside Vic Ash and Art Ellefson - an iconic trio whose chemistry creates magic on stage. Brian Foskett's photography transports us back to this golden era of jazz. Not forgetting Spike Heatley and Ronnie Stephenson who were part of the legendary Dankworth Big Band performing at Marquee Club in 1960.
