ORIGNAL STORY: The Valley Jazz Festival has been on for the last few days, and it’s finishing today. I’m just about to head in to see Melissa Western’s ‘minx’ Quintet (1pm) and the Brisbane Contemporary Jazz Orchestra (2pm) play for free at the Rotunda in the Brunswick St Mall, Fortitude Valley. (Click here to see exactly where the Rotunda is).
There’s still plenty of jazz left this afternoon and this evening - click here to see a pdf file of the program, or you can click here to go to the Festival’s website to see the program there.
I’ll be taking some hi-quality photos, and also sending in some live cameraphone shots and sound recordings of the two bands I’ll be seeing at the Rotunda - so if you can’t make it out, stay tuned to Brisbane Is Home for the next few hours.
Brisbane blog Larvatus Prodeo has kept an eye on the Festival this week, with stories about it here and here.
