Pelin Opcin of Serious says: “After launching the EFG London Jazz Festival Summer Series on the occasion of the EFG London Jazz Festival’s thirtieth anniversary last year, we are continuing to bring a taste of the Festival to London this summer as well. Summer Series creates a big moment of jazz in June and July, joining London with the major summer tours happening in Europe. We’re all really looking forward to the 2023 EFG London Jazz Festival Festival this November – this is a great chance to enjoy the music of the artists we admire a few months early!”
