REVIEW - Three Weeks
Jazz At Lunchtime
Ian Millar & Dominic Spencer
I'm sat in the candlelit cellar bar at the Radisson Hotel, having some lunch in front of two jazz musicians playing against a backdrop of the beautiful Scottish scenery. This is 'Jazz At Lunchtime', and I love it. Although I was slightly apprehensive about the use of footage from Glencoe, Pittenweem, and Edinburgh's very own Salisbury Crags (after all, jazz isn't often associated with heather and hairy Highland cattle), I thought it fitted in with the silky music surprisingly well. Millar and Spencer performed classic jazz standards as well as original compositions, and proved themselves to be extremley talented musicians. Very cool music played in a magical atmosphere - this will appeal to jazz novices as well as hardcore enthusiasts.
