Jazz at the St Ives September Festival next month includes the Ivo Neame Quintet at the Western Hotel on 17 September, followed on 24 September by singer Ian Shaw appearing in the lovely old Cornish seaside town in the company of the Ronnie Scott’s All-Stars. The All-Stars stay on to present the Ronnie Scott’s Story next night with club artistic director James Pearson on piano, Sam Burgess on bass, Pedro Segundo on drums with special guest Alex Garnett on saxophone, plus guest vocalists. This show finds Pearson in raconteur mode charting the club’s history with tales of yore featuring anecdotes galore illustrated by the All-Stars performing music associated with some of the jazz greats who have performed at the Frith Street shrine down the years.
