ANNOUNCEMENT OF NEW JAZZ AND SUPPER EVENT

 

It is now 14 months since A and W Jazz started its once monthly jazz evenings at its BAWA club concord room venue. Over this period of time it has steadily become recognised for its efforts to bring a cross section of good quality jazz to enthusiasts in the Bristol area. The original aim of A and W was to bring to the greater Bristol area some of the great names and bands that sadly can only be seen if one is prepared and able to travel to distant venues. To this end a great deal of success has been achieved, and the venue is now beginning to attract the attention of some of the very best in the Jazz world, a good example is the confirmed booking of Digby Fairweather and his band in march 2012, and engagement enquires from The National Youth Jazz Orchestra, and The Dutch Swing College Band. Both of which are interested in visiting as part of future tours. The facilities offered by the BAWA club are excellent, and proving to be a good choice, as further facilities have now been made available in order to enhance the current jazz nights. The first Big Band Dance was held in the Ballroom last month and proved to be a great success both with dancers and big band enthusiasts, with over 130 attending and many asking for more to come, the next one has been arranged for 20th January 2012.

I have long been of the opinion that a good jazz venue should be able to offer

a complete package to everyone, and it is noted that there is no provision for those who enjoy a quality social and jazz evening that also includes a first class supper as part of a complete night out. An ideal event to meet up with old friends, make new ones, celebrate a special occasion, or finish of a business meeting. I am therefore pleased to announce that in order to address this shortfall, the superb Pavilion Lounge at the BAWA club has been made available to me so as such events can take place. The Pavilion Lounge pon the first floor is an excellent well appointed self contained facility of a very high standard, and as such offers a generous but limited amount of seating, therefore all events will be by ticket only, and must be booked in advance.

For details of 1st event and how to book see below.
