Welcome to the Mill Hill Music Festival Website

 
We are please to present our Midsummer Jazz Festival this year. The Festival will take place from Wednesday 25th June to Sunday 29th June.

On a separate and sad note we would like to pay tribute to the late Humphrey Lyttelton. As I am sure many of you will know, Humph who has died at the age of 86, was an influential jazz musician, an acclaimed broadcaster and a raconteur with a wonderful wit. It was a great privilege to have had Humph as a patron of the Mill Hill Music Festival over all the years, and especially to have played host to him and his band on two occasions. The organisers of the Festival and Jazz Club would like to send their deepest sympathies to his family. To read more about this great musician and broadcaster, The Guardian newspaper has published George Melly's article on Humph here as an obituary.


Summertime means different things to different people. In Mill Hill, to many people it means great live music. Since the mid 1990s the Mill Hill Music Festival has provided North West London with a variety of musical genres from a host of talent. This year’s Midsummer Jazz Festival will continue the tradition of bringing live music to local music lovers - by giving them the chance to enjoy world class artists locally.


Our five day programme sees some of the finest musicians in the UK today, with a mixture of some of the best-known names in British jazz, along with some of the brightest young talent. We are especially pleased to welcome back Mill Hill’s special friend, Campbell Burnap.


The Mill Hill Jazz Club kicks off the Festival by playing host to the winner of the BBC Jazz Award for Best of Jazz in 2006, the splendid Anita Wardell. We are also very honoured to have Sir John Dankworth bring his quintet on Thursday, while Saturday brings the fantastic sound of Buddy Rich et al to Mill Hill in the form of The Steve Taylor Big Band.
