We are a mixed audience of Jazz lovers listening to recorded jazz on CD’s and Cassettes.

Each meeting a Club member presents an hour of their own choice of Jazz be it Big Band, Small Groups or just their favourite individual Jazz Musicians.
The evening concludes with our members bringing along their selected jazz tracks from their own collections chosen for our regular monthly 'theme'
During the second half of the meeting there is often an extra short presentation of no more than 30 minutes.
 

Members welcome an interval when the chairman makes announcements and then members can discuss jazz amongst themselves.
