Ronnie Scott's 100th Birthday

Marking 100 years since the birth of Ronnie Scott, this major concert celebrates the life and musical legacy of the legendary saxophonist, bandleader and co-founder of Ronnie Scotts Jazz Club, on his birthday and in one of Londons great concert halls.

Led by Ronnie Scotts Artistic Director James Pearson and members of the Ronnie Scotts All Stars, the concert brings together a cross-generational selection of greats from across British jazz history. Art Themen, John Etheridge, Orphy Robinson and Byron Wallen are joined by a new generation of artists including Camilla George, Daniel Casimir, Mark Kavuma and Joe Webb, alongside very special guests Omar Puente, Mica Paris and Curtis Stigers, alongside more still to be announced.

The programme draws on both sides of Ronnie Scotts legacy: music he wrote, arranged and performed himself, alongside music by the artists and musical movements that shaped his club over more than six decades - from Count Basie, Benny Goodman and Ella Fitzgerald to Dizzy Gillespie, Nina Simone, Roy Ayers, Irakere and Herbie Hancock.

Combining live performance with historic film and archive material, this one-off centenary celebration brings Ronnie Scotts remarkable story to life, connecting the music of its founder with the musicians who have carried his legacy forward across generations.
