The Jimi Sessions - A Handel on Jazz & Caleb Kunle
Oct 2024
Join us for a truly unique live music experience in Hendrix’s flat. Our musicians will be playing original music throughout the flat, creating unforgettable moments in this historic space. The series will end with a bang at Saint Pancras Old Church to celebrate Jimi’s birthday.
The opening act will fuse contemporary and baroque elements, acknowledging the influence of Jimi’s great musical neighbour, George Frederic Handel. There will then be an interval for you to explore Hendrix’s London pad, after which an intimate acoustic performance will begin in Jimi’s bedroom.
For this ultimate Jimi session of the season, we are thrilled to be joined by A Handel on Jazz and Caleb Kunle.
