Book Now

The Filomena Campus Quartet presents a special preview of their forthcoming album, offering a rare chance to experience the music live in the very space where it was recorded. Blending jazz, improvisation and spoken word, the performance unfolds as a vibrant and theatrical musical journey. The programme features original multilingual compositions co-written with Steve Lodder and Charlie Pyne, alongside new arrangements from Campus’ rich repertoire and international collaborations, including a vocal solo interpretation of a Jobim classic. Campus is joined by Steve Lodder (piano and keyboards), Rod Youngs (drums), and Charlie Pyne (double bass).

Healing, inspiring, cathartic, comedic, dramatic, political, fantastical, the Filomena Campus Quartet is truly irreplicable in the British jazz scene JAZZWISE
