On December 19th two incendiary young groups combine to pack a powerful punch of Big Band and Jewish music in a dynamic double-header.

The JMI Youth Big Band, led by Musical Director Sam Eastmond (John Zorn/Spike Orchestra), is Jewish music for the next generation, returning to JW3 for a concert celebrating their fifth year, and their fourth recording and 2nd full album release "Bet – We Are Here."

This album is a celebration of the creativity of a British Jewish identity and was created from a week long workshop in June 2021, where an intense session proved more fruitful than a banquet in the sukkah. An album was recorded, mixed and the results were astounding. There on disk was the captured a snapshot of Jewish musical creativity from our young. The excellence and passion put into the recording by the young musicians is something that all community can be proud of!
