Featuring heart felt renditions of beloved classic standard songs

Doors 6pm, Band at 7:30pm

Duke of George presents

Adrian Galante Quartet featuring Jessie Gordon: Songs of Ellington, Porter, Gershwin, Legrand and more

Adrian Galante is an Australian jazz clarinetist and pianist. His expressive playing exhibits a melancholic romanticism combined with a joyous feeling for swinging, bebop and the blues, playing both instruments with a depth of knowledge and feeling that very few attain. Jessie Gordon is an award-winning jazz vocalist, storyteller and songwriter. The two met several years ago when they joined gypsy swing band Sassafras, with whom they have created several sell-out Fringe World shows.  

This performance will feature heart felt renditions of beloved classic standard songs by Duke Ellington, Cole Porter, the Gershwin Brothers and Michel Legrand. Plus, more obscure gems by composers such as Alec Wilder, Jimmy Rowles & Cy Coleman.

Accompanying Adrian and Jessie will be a stellar trio composed of some of Perth’s finest jazz musicians. Featuring Harry Mitchell on Piano, Danny Moss Jr on Double Bass and Ebs Daramola on drums.
